Re: pg/plsql question

While I have accomplished what I needed with the pgedit script given by
John, I am still curious as to why mine is not working...
Here is the latest version:

/* */
create or replace function fred_on_all() RETURNS integer AS '
declare
v_schema varchar;
v_user varchar;
v_t varchar;
begin
v_user := ''user'';
v_schema := ''public'';
FOR v_t in select tablename from pg_catalog.pg_tables where
schemaname = v_schema
LOOP
raise notice ''v_t is %'', t;
END LOOP;
return 1;
end;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

Please note that all ticks above are single ticks.

Here is what I do to execute it:
excilan=# \i grant.sql
CREATE FUNCTION
excilan=# select fred_on_all();
ERROR: missing ".." at end of SQL expression
CONTEXT: compile of PL/pgSQL function "fred_on_all" near line 8

If anyone could shade some lights...

Much appreciated.
