Hi!
Trying to insert a whole file.txt in a table I'm getting separate
records for each paragraph terminated by a <LF> (0x0A).n the file.txt.
Is there any way to have a delimiter recognised so that more that one
single <LF> terminated paragraph can go in a single record?
The obvious solution would be to manually edit the file.txt and split it
into several smaller files; then, insert these into the table as
separate records.
No quicker way?
(using pgres 7.2.0)
