<snip> Ok, I worked out the direct cause, pg_wcswidth only returns the length upto the first newline and the line it breaks on is the multiline definition in "_pg_expandarray". The quick fix should be to only allocate memory if it's going to call format_numeric_locale(), since then you know it's a number. It makes the code slightly more convoluated but it should be slightly more efficient. I actually have a working psql that handles and displays newlines properly, but it's too late for 8.1. It fixes all these issues properly. Have a nice day, -- Martijn van Oosterhout <kleptog@svana.org> http://svana.org/kleptog/ > Patent. n. Genius is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration.
