What I've imagined for a long time is psql being able to display each
row in more than one line; for example something like
\df
Listado de funciones
Esquema | Nombre | Tipo de dato de salida | Tipo
Tipos de datos de argumentos
---------+-------------------+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
public | bt_metap | record | normal
relname text, OUT magic integer, OUT version integer, OUT root integer, OUT
level integer, OUT fastroot integer, OUT fastlevel integer
---------+-------------------+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
public | bt_page_items | SETOF record | normal
relname text, blkno integer, OUT itemoffset smallint, OUT ctid tid, OUT
itemlen smallint, OUT nulls boolean, OUT vars boolean, OUT data text
---------+-------------------+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So it's not as horizontally-wasteful as expanded, but it's much more
readable than aligned.
