pgAdmin shouldn't use quotes on some parameters: search_path, temp_tablespaces. Perhaps others. I don't find a way to pick them automatically. For example, their vartype are "string". Which is quite ambiguous with others "string" parameters like archive_command. Of course, we can use a specific code for them. It would be really easy, but I would prefer to find another way. -- Guillaume. http://www.postgresqlfr.org http://dalibo.com -- Sent via pgadmin-hackers mailing list (pgadmin-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-hackers
