I generally agreed with your opinion. But I'm not sure if there's someone who'd like to see the list of backslash commands and choose one to use. I mean, someone may type '\[tab][tab]' to check all supported backslash commands. postgres=# \ Display all 105 possibilities? (y or n) \! \dc \dL \dx \h \r ... In the above scenario, both single- and multiple-character versions could be helpful, thought? Regards, Tang
