Hello,
You’re right David, but:
SIMPLE=> \copy (select * from /*comment*/ pg_tables) to 'test';
COPY 76
SIMPLE=> \copy (select * from /*comment with a closing parenthesis)*/ pg_tables) to 'test';
\copy: parse error at "*/"
Only comments without parenthesis are supported?
Regards

Description:
When I run the following copy command under psql:

The comment /*(*/ is not ignored.
Where does it say that it should be?
