Today I was using \e to edit the buffer, something I don't commonly do. Somehow that screwed up my help file for psql. When I do \? instead of getting help for the slash commands I get General General General General General ull and not nosend; Any thoughts? The last line "ull and not nosend;" is part of what I was editing in the buffer. The rest don't know where it came from. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
