Bruce Momjian c75d65485d New \d format:
Example:

test=# \d test
     Table "public.test"
 Column |  Type   | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------
 a      | integer | not null
Indexes:
    "test_pkey" PRIMARY KEY btree (a)
Check Constraints:
    "$2" CHECK (a > 1)
Foreign Key Constraints:
    "$1" FOREIGN KEY (a) REFERENCES parent(b)
Rules:
    myrule AS ON INSERT TO test DO INSTEAD NOTHING
Triggers:
    "asdf asdf" AFTER INSERT OR DELETE ON test FOR EACH STATEMENT EXECUTE
PROCEDURE update_pg_pwd_and_pg_group(),
    mytrigger AFTER INSERT OR DELETE ON test FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE
update_pg_pwd_and_pg_group()

I have minimised the double quoting of identifiers as much as I could
easily, and I will submit another patch when I have time to work on it that
will use a 'fmtId' function to determine it exactly.

I think it's a significant improvement in legibility...

Obviously the table example above is slightly degenerate in that not many
tables in production have heaps of (non-constraint) triggers and rules.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains several language
bindings, including C, Perl, Python, and Tcl, as well as a JDBC
driver.

The ODBC and C++ interfaces have been moved to the PostgreSQL Projects
Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate maintenance.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
