I don't think this is the right solution to that problem; or at least, it's not the solution I want personally. I want something like --function=glob (and yes I do want that same thing for every other object type, too, but PARTICULARLY for functions). This might be a next-best solution to that problem, but I'm still holding out for the home run. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
