Good, that's definitely an improvement. But can we not remove that empty line alltogether in tuples-only mode? At the moment: $ echo '\dt+ diffs*' | psql --tuples-only public | diffs_2013_01 | table | aardvark | 8456 kB | public | diffs_2013_02 | table | aardvark | 7832 kB | $ The trailing empty line here makes almost as little sense as in the now amended case where there are zero rows ... (Of course, I realise that it's much more likely to break existing scripts, but should we then keep such illogical things forever at all cost?)
