that?
I'd recommend an option in .psqlrc to disable it, if possible. That
would be in line with what alot of other "splash-screen" type things do.

I honestly don't care that I get a few lines of garbage as I start psql
- I never really look at it myself (the first dozen times I used pg it
was probably helpful to have the help commands there).
So what if you get a few lines of text as you start a program, it
scrolls off the screen with everything else, it doesn't fill up your
drive in log files and I doubt the 250 bytes being sent across the
network for those running remotely is going to chew up anyone's
bandwidth allocation.
I do think that an rc file option (or even a ./configure option if you
want to go that far) is fine for those in the know to adjust to their
tastes - a better option than not show it once a .psql_history exists.
