> This patch has annoyed me twice in two days now, and similarly with > other people I know. Having to type \dfS now is about the worst loss of > usability in psql that I can recall. Can we reconsider or revert this? The problem is that you, me, and the people we know are the only ones who actually use \df to see system functions. 99.99% of users don't care, or don't even know, about the system functions - but they do care about being able to view /their/ functions. So from a usability perspective, asking a small minority of users to learn to type an extra character is a small price to pay for a great leap in usability for everyone else. Frankly, the previous behavior was simply broken: there was no way to see all your functions (unless they happened to live in a single schema, then you could do the non-intuituve and annoying \df schemaname.) For the record, many of the people *I* know, including many 'hackers', like this change a lot. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane g...@turnstep.com End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200901151139 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREDAAYFAklvaAkACgkQvJuQZxSWSshpJQCbB5LbrjuP1Q9CcYAkdh6xLnoC kSsAoLvXVnGqJLi1RfnmIgzn/VRVjF9B =Twyv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
