Thanks, a combination of the two answers solves it:

echo 'set client_min_messages TO WARNING; SELECT * FROM show(1135311);' | psql -d combilex

Notices and their context now gone. Not sure why I had to use ';' rather than '\\' to join the two statements, but it's working so I'm happy.

Hi All,

I'm having trouble with turning off notices. Within psql I use \set
VERBOSITY terse, which is fine. However, using psql -c I am having
trouble. It seems I should be able to use psql -qc 'mycommand' but I am
still getting notices output, e.g.

psql -d combilex -qc 'SELECT * FROM show(1135311);'
NOTICE:  phonotactic error, please check transcription
CONTEXT:  SQL statement "SELECT etc....

Is there a way to turn these notices off other than reconfiguring the
conf file and restarting the database? I am using 8.1.3.

If you want no notices, you could try "set client_min_messages TO
WARNING".
