Bad news... If max chars per column is defined, a truncation performed 
by pgAdmin3 is visualized by appended " (..)". It seems that the 
listview isn't able to display more than 511 chars, this might be win32 
specific (use linux... :-), or a restriction of wx (we'd fix this)

I'll check this; if win32 is guilty (I believe so) we're stuck. It must 
be quite hard to display this anyway, lot of scrolling necessary...
In this case, I'd suggest to export the data and use an editor, 
obviously you already did so.

Regards,
Andreas
