As an occasional pgAdmin user, I have often thought that this feature should be added to psql. It would save time going back and forth between different views (especially with broad tables). I would be glad to have the possibility. It would have to be optional, of course. In short: +1 from me. thanks, Erik Rijkers -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
