This adds a new psql command \gp that works like \g (or semicolon) but
uses the extended query protocol. Parameters can also be passed, like
SELECT $1, $2 \gp 'foo' 'bar'
+1 for the concept. The patch looks simple and complete.
I find it strange to use it the way you have shown above, i.e. \gp on
same line after a query.
That's how all the "\g" commands work.
...since if we used this in a script, it would be used like this, I think...
SELECT $1, $2
\gp 'foo' 'bar'
\gp 'bar' 'baz'
...
Interesting, but I think for that we should use named prepared
statements, so that would be a separate "\gsomething" command in psql, like
SELECT $1, $2 \gprep p1
\grun p1 'foo' 'bar'
\grun p1 'bar' 'baz'
