Clarification, honor $COLUMNS if ioctl() fails but only for interactive mode. If we can't make everyone happy we could just not add the patch.

Of course nothing is usually worse than either option but groups behave in strange ways sometimes. -- Bruce Momjian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
