Nay,we have currently nice multi-line CREATEs.
the following python script should to work
------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
in_data = 0
while 1:
line = sys.stdin.readline()
if not line: break
if line[:5] == 'COPY ':
in_data = 1
if not in_data: sys.stdout.write(line)
if in_data and line[:2] == '\\.':
in_data = 0
-----------------------------------------------------
as you can probably guess it is used as
stripdata.py <withdata.sql >withoutdata.sql
-------------------------
