BTW, something else I'd meant to bring up for discussion is whether anyone likes the formatting of column privileges in \dp:
regression=# create table foo(bar int, baz int); CREATE TABLE regression=# grant select on foo to joe; GRANT regression=# grant insert(bar), update(baz) on foo to joe; GRANT regression=# \dp foo Access privileges Schema | Name | Type | Access privileges | Column access privileges --------+------+-------+---------------------------+-------------------------- public | foo | table | postgres=arwdDxt/postgres | bar: : joe=r/postgres : joe=a/postgres : baz: : joe=w/postgres (1 row) (The colons after the column names are something I added on my own authority to Stephen's original.) This seems a bit ASCII-art-ish to me; it certainly wouldn't be readily parsable by programs. Now that's not really the design goal for \d output, and I don't have a better suggestion offhand, but still... anyone got a better idea? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
