pgsql has readline support (eaxctly the same library as bash). Your
PostgreSQL was probably compiled without this option. You compiled it
yourself? If so, compile again with --enable-readline (you will need
the readline library and its development environment).
(The Debian package of PostgreSQL has readline support
out-of-the-box. One more reason to thanks Oliver.)
