Message-ID: <6032E183529AB142929BB11B0CC23611096EB4DC@a013> (raw)
Does anyone know of the PostgreSQL or pl/psSQL equivalent to MS SQL Server's
xp_cmdshell? This is the command that allows you issue command-line
statements from within SQL, e.g., you would do xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\' if you
wanted to see the contents of the c: drive.
