hi
according to docs -F parameter given to psql is equivalent to \f or
\pset fieldset in psql itself.
this is usually true, but if i'll try to use "tab" as field separator, i
cannot enter it like this:
psql -c "something" -A -t -F '\t'
it just returns fields separated by literally '\t', and not by tab-space
character.
yet, entering the same in psql as \f '\t' works great.
i belive this is just simple ommision in argument parsing, but i belive
it should be corrected to maintain uniform way of communication with
user.

best regards
