<br /><p><font size="2">Hi all,<br /><br /> I have a patch which tries to improve the '\d some_sequence_name' command
outputin psql utility. Before sending the patch to pgsql-patches I just want to know your opinion whether the new
outputof the command is OK or it needs to be modified before sending it to pgsql-patches.<br /><br /> For comparison
purpose,here is the output of the '\d some_sequence_name' command:<br /><br /> -- Say we have created a sequence named
'test_seq'already as CREATE SEQUENCE test_seq.<br /><br /> --<br /> -- Output: before applying the patch.<br /> --<br
/>testdb=# \d test_seq;<br /> Sequence "public.test_seq"<br />     Column     |  Type  <br />
---------------+---------<br/>  sequence_name | name<br />  last_value    | bigint<br />  increment_by  | bigint<br />
 max_value    | bigint<br />  min_value     | bigint<br />  cache_value   | bigint<br />  log_cnt       | bigint<br />
 is_cycled    | boolean<br />  is_called     | boolean<br /><br /> --<br /> -- Output: after applying the patch.<br />
--<br/> testdb=# \d test_seq;<br />                                   Sequence "public.test_seq"<br />  last_value |
increment_by|      max_value      | min_value | cache_value | log_cnt | is_cycled | is_called<br />
