+1 for adding an iteration count argument to \watch.
+ char *opt_end;
+ sleep = strtod(opt, &opt_end);
+ if (sleep <= 0 || *opt_end)
+ {
+ pg_log_error("Watch period must be positive
number, but argument is '%s'", opt);
+ free(opt);
+ resetPQExpBuffer(query_buf);
+ return PSQL_CMD_ERROR;
+ }
Is there any reason to disallow 0 for the sleep argument? I often use
commands like "\watch .1" to run statements repeatedly with very little
time in between, and I'd use "\watch 0" instead if it was available.
