BTW, didn't have an opinion on that to start with, but after thinking about it I'd turn it around. psql doesn't deal in DSN format anywhere else, so why should it do so here? To make the point more obvious, what's the justification for printing DSN format and not, say, JDBC URL format? I'd vote for removing the DSN printout option, not the other way round. If there was some mechanically readable format to offer to print, it would be conninfo string format, which you can actually use with psql if you have a mind to. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
