Hi hackers,
Type info can be viewed with "\d mytable", however often I'd like to see the type (and typmod) info in SELECT queries with psql, similar to pgAdmin III. For example:
my_db=# \pset typemy_db=# SELECT * FROM my_table;
gid | description | width integer | character varying(255) | numeric(6,3)
---------+------------------------+--------------
1 | Hello | 3.220
(1 row)
or in expanded form:
my_db=# \x
my_db=# SELECT * FROM my_table;
-[ RECORD 1 ]------
gid : integer | 1
description : character varying(255) | Hello
width : numeric(6,3) | 3.220
Has anyone else thought this was a missing feature?
-Mike
