Subject: Bug#146689: postgresql-client: 'GRANT DELETE' autocompletion follo=
ws syntax for 'DELETE'
Date: 11 May 2002 17:55:13 -0700

Package: postgresql-client
Version: 7.2.1-2
Severity: minor

When using tab completion to help enter SQL statements while using psql
interactively 'GRANT DELETE' uses the syntax from 'DELETE' rather than
that from 'GRANT'.

It should follow something like:

GRANT UPDATE ON <table> TO

Instead it does:

GRANT DELETE FROM <table> WHERE

It auto fills in FROM and WHERE. It'll even wipe out ON and TO in those
places.

This doesn't affect anything if you don't use the tab completion, so
it's just an annoyance.

Yes, autocomplete is only smart about the first word or two;  very hard
to fix this.
