I don't agree about moving this to a client. It is too important for that. Many admin apps and psql need this capability and having it in a client just requires everyone to reinvent the wheel. Let me think over you issues and see what I can come up with. The patch isn't that big and already does 90% of what we need. We just need ot get that extra 10%. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
