Hope you feel better soon! I've been taking 1500 to 2000mg of vitamin  
C daily to try to stay healthy.

As for snake, I can't offer much.

\x09 is a '\t'.  Is it now prohibited(non-printable) symbol?

AFAIR the reason for different length of psql's  '----' header lines
was database encoding being UNICODE not SQL_ASCII.  Can this be the case
there?

Oh, now I see it's everywhere.  Probably intentional change then.

Oh, didn't spot those (barely functioning at all today though!).

No-one has even logged into Snake for a week or more though, so I would
still suspect a source change as the culprit.

Regards, Dave.

The failure, I think, it because of the newline patch we got for psql
yesterday.  I am seeking a diff from pgcrypto to fix it.  My openssl is
too old.

A side affect of this newline patch is that all fields are now filled with 
white space up to the displayed column width, even for the last (or only 
column). I guess this is somehow required for consistent display. Otherwise, 
it makes copy&paste from a psql session more painful, because of all the 
added white-space. I hope that psql output intended for script output using 
the available flags (i.e. not the "nice display" output) is unaffected?

My intention was to only change formatted output. Unformatted should be
unchanged from previous.

The extra spaces is an interesting side-effect. In the past it would
only have worked for the last column anyway, right?

Anyway, it is a fixable issue and I'd consider doing it if people think
it's worth it.

Have a nice day,

Right, my explanation was not correct. It should have been "the last column 
is now also filled with spaces". Of course all but the last column were 
always filled with spaces.

I personally don't like the added spaces (feels inefficient), but that is 
only a matter of taste, so you can rather ignore it.
I am not sure about people who perhaps rely on the output format in scripts 
(even if it's bad to rely on that specific output format, because the output 
of psql can be changed to be more suitable for scripts). For multi-column 
output things have not really changed anyway.

Of course.

I think it would be a good idea to expect this patch to cause zero
change in psql output except in the cases where there are actually
control characters in the data.  Otherwise there are likely to be
complaints.  (I'm already unhappy at the prospect that this means
every single regression test's output has changed, even if diff
--ignore-space is hiding them.)

I'd settle for stripping trailing blanks on the last line of a multiline
field value, if that'd be any easier than stripping them for all lines.

How do people feel about having tabs displayed as 0x09?  Should they be
a literal tab?

If they're a literal tab they'll mess up the formatting that we just so
painstakingly put in.  I'd personally vote for \t rather than \x09, but
other than that I agree with doing something like this in formatted
psql output.

OTOH ... there's a rather nasty problem with this whole concept, which
is that you can't readily tell whether the data was a tab or the actual
string "\x09".  The only way to make it unambiguous would be to start
doubling backslashes, which I think is a complete nonstarter on
backwards compatibility grounds :-(
