It's unportable, for two different reasons: 1. pg_dump output would become platform-specific. This is highly undesirable. 2. The printf specifiers you want us to rely on are not standard. Cf Single Unix Spec, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/fprintf.html which does not define either %A or %a. 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
