I've attached a patch that implements \si, \sm, \st and \sr functions
that show the CREATE command for indexes, matviews, triggers and
tables. The functions are implemented similarly to the existing sf/sv
functions with some modifications.
To me these functions seem useful.
As for adding them to server side, I don't see a big need for it. It
feels more logical to follow the already eatablished pattern for the
\s[...] commands.
About the patch:
1) There is some code duplication for the exec_command_[sm|si|st|sr]
functions. Plus, it seems weird to separate sm (show matview) from sv
(show view). Perhaps it would be more convenient to combine some of the
code? Maybe by editing the already-existing exec_command_sf_sv()
function.
2) Seeing how \s and \e functions were added together, I'm wondering -
should there be \e functions too for any objects affected by this patch?
