Hm, this also bother me all the time. It doesn't sound like it would be very hard to detect pasted tabs actually. Two options come to mind: . If there's any input available it's probably not a typed tab since typists usually can't type fast enough to out type the terminal emulator, and even if they could typing tab for command completion and then going ahead and typing the next character immediately would reasonably cancel the tab completion. . Pasted tabs are normally at the start of a line for indentation. Simply ignoring tab completion after white-space, ie, unbounded tab completion on an empty token, would eliminate 99.9% of the problem. -- greg ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
