I've run pg_dump on a database, which I've done many times before, to
backup and then restore databases.
However, this time before I restore the database, I'm wanting to edit one
of the datatypes before I restore the data. As soon as I open up the file
then save it, regardless of actually making any changes.. the restore will
fail whenever it gets to the point of inserting the data.
I'm guessing it's choking because whatever text editor I'm using is hosing
the fields with long entries... I've tried opening the file with vi, pico,
and Homesite on a WindowsNT box..
Any suggestions on how to get around this?
