Currently our prompt is fairly verbose:
Welcome to psql 8.1.10, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms \h for help with SQL commands \? for help with psql commands \g
orterminate with semicolon to execute query \q to quit
We could just do:
psql 8.1.10 - postgresql server version 8.1.10
Type: \h for SQL help, \? for psql help, \q to quit
postgres=#
