My recollection is that the principal argument against ONLINE was that it didn't convey the function of the option to anyone who didn't already know Oracle's usage of the term. Also, psql's problem is not with auto-completion, it's with detecting whether the command is allowed inside a transaction block. That's not a function we can just blow off. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
