Folks,
Please find enclosed a patch that lets you use \c to connect
(optionally) to a new host and port without exiting psql. This
eliminates, IMHO, a surprise in that you can now connect to PostgreSQL
on a differnt machine from the one where you started your session.
This should help people who
Hi,
I've written do_connect() and \c handling part from scratch in the
attached patch. Here are some features introduced:
- \c syntax is extended. (See comment lines just above \c stuff.)
- do_connect() AI (like used for prompting password or informing
client about connect attempt's result.)
