And whilst it's true, we already parse the current output in pgAdmin, it's a PITA whenever the format changes. I also want a format in which Tom is not going to refuse to include additional data (such as the schema a relation is in) because it clutters the output. A machine readable format would seem to the idea way to include all data we may need, without making human-readable output an unreadable mess. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
