**pgFormatter 4.3 released**
Version 4.3 of pgFormatter, a free and reliable tool used to format
SQL and PLPGSQL code, has been officially released and is publicly
available for download. A demonstration site is available online at
http://sqlformat.darold.net/
pgFormatter is the most advanced SQL and PlPgsql code formatter and
beautifier dedicated to PostgreSQL. It is provided as a CLI or a CGI
program.
This is a maintenance release to fix issues reported by users since
the last two months. As usual there is also some improvements and
more formatting supported.
New option:
* Add command line option -r | --redshift to add RedShift specific
keywords to the list of SQL keywords to format.
* Add command line option -N | --numbering to include statement
numbering. All formatted statements or block of code are prefixed
by a line with comment: /* Statement # n */.
Also available in CGI mode as a select box option.
Backward compatibility:
* Keep simple quote as function code delimiter, previous behavior
was to replace them by $$ and replace all double simple quote in
the code by a single one. Now they are kept unchanged.
* Restore formatting of --comma-break option with INSERT statement, a
regression was introduced in version 4.2.
