I'm still not used to the change that I have to use \d+ rather than \d to see the view definition. It's the #1 thing I want to see when examining a view, and since 2fe1b4dd651917aad2accac7ba8adb44d9f54930 I have to remember to stick a + sign in there. So, in short, I agree. -- 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
