Wait a minute. What I thought we had agreed to was a patch to make commands sent with \g use a cursor. This patch changes SendQuery so that *every* command executed via psql is treated this way. That's a whole lot bigger behavioral change than I think is warranted. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: 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
