Thanks, corrected, and confirmed Unix line endings.

FWIW, the simplest way to test it is with this command (I usually get it wrong on the first guess)

\set PROMPT1 %T ' ' :PROMPT1

Nice. The patch applies clean and the cfbots seem much happier now - all passed.

The docs render also just fine. I'm now wondering if HH24:MI:SS should be formatted with, e.g. using <literal>

"The current time on the client in <literal>HH24:MI:SS</literal> format."

But that I'll leave to the docs experts to judge :)

Best, Jim
