I missed that.  There is a hook for it.  Thank you.  Apologies.

I just got the first pass of readline working in windows with psql!!
it's "rough"  right now, I will have to work through a bunch of
assumptions...
but it's WORKING! (at least in utf8)... Tons of testing, and some of this
code has not
been compiled for Windows in 17yrs.  I might need to find one of the
geniuses who
understands the inner workings of psqlscanslash...
