Well, no - that's just dumping out the parsed form.
eg.
test=# create view v as select 1 in (1,2,3,4);
CREATE
test=# select * from v;
?column?
----------
t
(1 row)
test=# \d v
View "v"
Column | Type | Modifiers
----------+---------+-----------
?column? | boolean |
View definition: SELECT ((((1 = 1) OR (1 = 2)) OR (1 = 3)) OR (1 = 4));
It's really annoying when people save their view definition in phpPgAdmin
and when they load it up again it's lost all formatting. Functions and
rules, for instance keep the original formatting somewhere.
