And, I get to look at the commands before running them. For example: something like this to revoke all for all tables in the public schema: -- Turn off headers: \t -- Use SQL to build SQL: SELECT 'REVOKE ALL ON public.' || table_name || ' FROM PUBLIC;' FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_type = 'BASE TABLE' AND table_schema='public'; -- If the output looks good, write it to a file and run it: \g out.tmp \i out.tmp It works pretty well on similar tasks, at least until you run into string quote/escape problems. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org

I'll see about making it available (it's not very big). Of course, I think it'd be nice to have some functions in core that did the same thing; or maybe some ability in psql to do it.
