Hi,
Here's a new version of a small patch to psql I'm using locally.
It adds a command \ns to psql which is a shortcut to set the
SEARCH_PATH variable.
I'd like to make a case for including this patch as it makes use of
schemas/namespaces much easier. There was resistance to including this
before just because some developers don't use schemas very much. But
we use a lot of them. And I'm sure we're not alone.
Previously I used just \n but there was some resistance to this
because the single letter commands are becoming scarce.
I've also added tab completion making this command much more useful. I
don't think tab completition would be possible if this command was
defined as a variable (which was another suggestion offered at the
time).
Cheers,
Colin
