Hi Everybody,
I am a bit confused about field separator.
In psql, \pset command lets me change this value from the default
to something else. I thought field separator was “|” below:
marker | allele | afreq | fam_ | p
------------+--------+-------+------+----------
RS2312724 | 2 | 0.125 | 25 | 0.271484
RS1020382 | 2 | 0.417 | 69 | 0.609682
RS11878315 | 2 | 0.335 | 64 | 0.354771
Can somebody please tell me what “|” is called in my example above?
And is it possible to change it from “|” to something else for
display purpose?
Thank you.
