Jamie,

I was just noticing another thread where Hans asked about the [entry]
object. Have you tried to use this with your 'psql'? It looks very
interesting, although, it does not output as if it were a message.
Basically, when I typed in some text...

select id, name from mytable where x = 2;

and it output a list as

list select id\\, name from mytable where x = 2\\\;

yes, the escape characters are there, and there is a comma...


Just a thought. I will try this at home tonight on my stuff...

Thank,

Mike
