output of psql slash commands. Documentation updated. I also made
some unrelated minor psql cleanup. Per suggestion from Stuart Cooper.
psql. i.e. "\pset format troff-ms". The patch also corrects some
problems with the "latex" format, notably defining an extra column in
the output table, and correcting some alignment issues; it also
changes the output to match the border setting as documented in the
manual page and as shown with the "aligned" format.
The troff-ms output is mostly identical to the latex output allowing
for the differences between the two typesetters.
The output should be saved in a file and piped as follows:
cat file | tbl | troff -T ps -ms > file.ps
or
tbl file | troff -T ps -ms > file.ps
Because it contains tabs, you'll need to redirect psql output or use
"script", rather than pasting from a terminal window, due to the tabs
which can be replaced with spaces.

o "_" is not escaped, and causes TeX to abort, thinking it's a
subscript outside of maths mode. Most of my table and field names
use underscores, so this is a really nasty one.
o The column count is calculated using the contents of opt_align. But
opt_align has one extra element, and so it's always one too many. I
changed it to count the column headings, like all the other output
formats. There may be a bug in computing opt_align that this patch
does not address, but I'm not yet familiar enough with the psql
source to fix this as well.
o The line drawing rules for each border setting (0-3) and expanded
mode didn't always match the documented behaviour and what other
formats (e.g. aligned) did. I made it as conformant as possible,
and also tidied the alignment of the first line of the footer, which
was incorrectly indented.

timezone code and other places.
Remove elog() calls from find_my_exec; do fprintf(stderr) instead. We
can then remove the exec.c handling in the makefile because it doesn't
have to be built to suppress elog calls.
way to fix this is probably implementing safe memory handling functions
once in a static lib and then using that in the various client apps,
but for the moment I've just reverted the change to un-break the tree.
little more sane. Some parts of the code was using a static function
xmalloc() that did safe memory allocation (where "safe" means "bail
out on OOM"), but most of it was just invoking calloc() or malloc()
directly. Now almost everything invokes xmalloc() or xcalloc().
print.c: Add one more line to pager calculation to account for the prompt.

Add one to line count in helpSQL to account for "Available help:" line.

The output now validates as HTML 4.01 Strict, XHTML 1.0 strict,
and XHTML 1.1 (assuming you wrap it in a valid html/body document).
It also wraps the output of PGRES_COMMAND_OK if the HTML tag is on,
for full compliance: this is why html_escaped_print has to be
externalized.

It compiles cleanly under Windows 2000 using Visual Studio .net. Also
compiles clean and passes all regression tests (regular and contrib)
under Linux.
In addition to a review by the usual suspects, it would be very
desirable for someone well versed in the peculiarities of win32 to take
a look.

should be pretty safe in practice, but it's probably better to be safe
than sorry.
I was actually looking for cases where NAMEDATALEN is assumed to be
32, but only found one. That's fixed too, as well as a few bits of
code cleanup.

Also, update mb/expected/unicode.out. This is necessary since the
patches affetc the result of queries using UTF-8.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I should have sent the patch earlier, but got delayed by other stuff.
Anyway, here is the patch:
- most of the functionality is only activated when MULTIBYTE is
defined,
- check valid UTF-8 characters, client-side only yet, and only on
output, you still can send invalid UTF-8 to the server (so, it's
only partly compliant to Unicode 3.1, but that's better than
nothing).
- formats with the correct number of columns (that's why I made it in
the first place after all), but only for UNICODE. However, the code
allows to plug-in routines for other encodings, as Tatsuo did for
the other multibyte functions.
- corrects a bit the UTF-8 code from Tatsuo to allow Unicode 3.1
characters (characters with values >= 0x10000, which are encoded on
four bytes).
- doesn't depend on the locale capabilities of the glibc (useful for
remote telnet).
I would like somebody to check it closely, as it is my first patch to
pgsql. Also, I created dummy .orig files, so that the two files I
created are included, I hope that's the right way.
Now, a lot of functionality is NOT included here, but I will keep that
for 7.3 :) That includes all string checking on the server side (which
will have to be a bit more optimised ;) ), and the input checking on
the client side for UTF-8, though that should not be difficult. It's
just to send the strings through mbvalidate() before sending them to
the server. Strong checking on UTF-8 strings is mandatory to be
compliant with Unicode 3.1+ .
Do I have time to look for a patch to include iso-8859-15 for 7.2 ?
The euro is coming 1. january 2002 (before 7.3 !) and over 280
millions people in Europe will need the euro sign and only iso-8859-15
and iso-8859-16 have it (and unfortunately, I don't think all Unices
will switch to Unicode in the meantime)....
err... yes, I know that this is not every single person in Europe that
uses PostgreSql, so it's not exactly 280m, but it's just a matter of
time ! ;)
I'll come back (on pgsql-hackers) later to ask a few questions
regarding the full unicode support (normalisation, collation,
regexes,...) on the server side :)
Here is the patch !
Patrice.

TIOCGWINSZ is defined as follows:
Linux asm/ioctls.h
FreeBSD sys/ttycom.h. This file is included by sys/ioctl.h.
Solaris sys/termios.h
This patch tells print.c to know TIOCGWINSZ on Solaris platform. Same code is
founded in src/bin/psal/common.c.

Use --enable-nls to turn it on; see installation instructions for details.
See developer's guide how to make use of it in programs and how to add
translations.
psql sources have been almost fully prepared and an incomplete German
translation has been provided. In the backend, only elog() calls are
currently translatable, and the provided German translation file is more
of a placeholder.
are now separate files "postgres.h" and "postgres_fe.h", which are meant
to be the primary include files for backend .c files and frontend .c files
respectively. By default, only include files meant for frontend use are
installed into the installation include directory. There is a new make
target 'make install-all-headers' that adds the whole content of the
src/include tree to the installed fileset, for use by people who want to
develop server-side code without keeping the complete source tree on hand.
Cleaned up a whole lot of crufty and inconsistent header inclusions.
Context diff this time.
Remove -m486 compile args for FreeBSD-i386, compile -O2 on i386.
Compile with only -O on alpha for codegen safety.
Make the port use the TEST_AND_SET for alpha and i386 on FreeBSD.
Fix a lot of bogus string formats for outputting pointers (cast to int
and %u/%x replaced with no cast and %p), and 'Size'(size_t) are now
cast to 'unsigned long' and output with %lu/
Remove an unused variable.

am including a patch to get it compile.
changes to psql:
- added less as default pager when compiling on Cygwin
- need to declare "filename_completion_function" because it is not exported
from readline -> added to include/port/win.h
changes to pg_id:
- include of <getopt.h>
- add .exe when installing
I think there is a problem with calling the regress tests on WinNT - it
should be called with PORTNAME not HOST as the parameter to regress.sh or
the check when to add "-h localhost" to psql has to be changed. Now it is
checked against the PORTNAME.
The results of the regress tests were OK with expected failures ;-)
