I just had a thought; was looking at a script where I'd rather invoke using psql than using a Perl module (since Pg/DBD that might very well not be available on AIX, HP/UX, Solaris, or such).
What would be very nice would be for there to be a psql command option that would accept a "DSN" as opposed to having to parse it all out into pieces. Thus: psql --dsn="host=george port=5434 dbname=testing" That way, I can use the very same DSNs that I have already put together for use for numerous other purposes... I can certainly work around this for my current purpose, but I still think it would be a slick option to have. If I find Round Tuits, I'll see about a patch... -- output = reverse("moc.enworbbc" "@" "enworbbc") http://cbbrowne.com/info/oses.html "This must be Thursday.
