[SQL] recompiling to use gnu readline?
Folks- I inadvertantly compiled pg 7.0.3 without gnu readline installed, so I now don't have access to lots of the nice command-line utilities it would have conveyed. Is there any way to add in the functionality now, or do I need to recompile? If I need to recompile, how can I do so without wiping out existing data?

You can use the new executable with existing data. In fact you only need to recompile psql (src/bin/psql) after re-configuring, not the postmaster. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://yi.org/peter-e/ ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
