It seems to me that the Mo Betta answer would be to implement the fabled "stored procedure" language, that has, as its distinctive, the capability to control transactions. That would have the capability of being used in places other than just inside psql. And it would be a good way for scripting things like specialized vacuum and analyze regimens, which cannot be done inside stored functions today. -- When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?" -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
