Subject: sqlplus reporting equivalent in postgres?
 
We're in the process of porting our Oracle 10.2 datawarehouse over to
PostGres 8.4.  One thing we rely upon are daily/hourly reports that are
run and formatted in sqlplus (break on report, compute sum, etc.).  Is
there an equivalent available in postgres?

Thanks.
Tony

psql - not as advanced, doesn't have all the features SQL*Plus has.

On the other hand, it is at least capable of command history and readline
support.

Damn!  Why didn't anyone tell me about that a couple of years ago when I had
to deal with Oracle?
