Subject: bug in psql-ref
Date: Fri, 29 Sep 2006 06:49:18 +0200
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

While testing the texinfo target, I noticed the following bug in the
psql reference.  Declaring a printed character as part of the control
sequence is likely to confuse readline about what is on the screen,
causing unreliable line editing.

Patch attached.

regards,
andreas
