In order to avoid record wrapping in the tabular output of a "select" statement, I need to limit the width of certain columns. For those columns, I would like to have text wrapping so as not to lose any information (IOW, I don't want to simply truncatate and lose info).
Example:
name |age |life_story |favorite_color
---------------+-----+------------------------------------------+--------------
madame marie | 123 | She was born a long time ago, blah, blah,| yellow
| | blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,|
| | blah, more-more-mmore-more-more, |
| | andmore-andmore-andmore-andmore, blah, |
| | blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah |
| | and now she's 123 years old |
---------------+-----+------------------------------------------+---------------
... that sort of thing. Also, line breaks in the "life_story" where they make sense, like on spaces, as you see in lines 3&4 of that column
Is there an easy way to configure PG to do this ?
