Re: Issue with psqlrc with command line.

Hi David,

Thank you for the swift response.

However, could you please confirm if the below scenario is expected.

- included the alias in the file.
- And passed the file with psql and it worked.

*-bash-4.2$ cat test *
*:testing*

*-bash-4.2$ /opt/PostgreSQL/9.6/bin/psql -f test *
* id *
*----*
* 1*
