This sounds a lot like a known bug in Apple's version of libedit: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2010-04/msg00127.php libedit has proven pretty buggy over the years, and Apple isn't too speedy to fix it. The best bet really is to use GNU readline instead. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
