Hi Wasim, 

As pointed out by Tom, catalog changes are likely to break or show unexpected results. We often experienced this kind of issues in our regression runs for a tool where we used to migrate from other databases to different versions if Postgres Servers and then print using \… commands. Even if these worked, we had to make adjustments.

Hi All 

I want to ask if psql is compatible with any postgresql version?

Backward compatibility won't work, I know,

Or do you?

psql 16 is most certainly backwards compatible with PG server 9.6, for example.
 
but can there be a confirmation of forward compatibility from anyone?

It works but any links or documentation or if anyone faced any issues please let me know.

Thanks,
Wasim
