There was discussion of doing that, but it didn't get done in time (and it's too late now for 7.4 unless you want an initdb). I wouldn't mind putting it on TODO for 7.5. I think the SHOW ALL output should be kept to one line per variable, which'd preclude adding "long" descriptions, but we could think about adding the "short" ones. (I have no similar worry about pg_settings because one can easily choose which columns one looks at.) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
