A while ago I went looking for nice ways to export an unencoded bytea
value using psql, see
<http://people.planetpostgresql.org/andrew/index.php?/archives/196-Clever-trick-challenge.html>.
Regina Obe is also in want of a solution for this:
<http://www.postgresonline.com/journal/archives/243-PSQL-needs-a-better-way-of-outputting-bytea-to-binary-files.html>.
It seems like what we need is a psql command for it, something like:
\copybytea (select query_returning_one_bytea) to /path/to/file
Does anyone have a better solution or any objection to this feature?
cheers
andrew
