Hello David,
About v3. Applies, compiles, global & local make check are ok. doc gen ok.
I'd put the commands in alphabetical order (echo, qecho, warn) instead of
e/w/q in the condition.
Done.
Cannot see it:
+ else if (strcmp(cmd, "echo") == 0 || strcmp(cmd, "warn") == 0 || strcmp(cmd,
"qecho") == 0)
The -n trick does not appear in the help lines, ISTM that it could fit, so
maybe it could be added, possibly something like:
\echo [-n] [TEXT] write string to stdout, possibly without trailing newline
and same for \warn and \qecho?
Makes sense, but I put it there just for \echo to keep lines short.
I think that putting together the 3 echo variants help makes sense, but
maybe someone will object about breaking the abc order.
How might we test this portably?
Hmmm... TAP tests are expected to be portable. Attached a simple POC, which
could be extended to test many more things which are currently out of
coverage (src/bin/psql stuff is covered around 40% only).
Thanks for putting this together. I've added this test, and agree that
increasing coverage is important for another patch.
Yep.
