Hi,

I am trying to figure out how I can show the current search_path, or
better the first search_path entry (the active schema) in the PROMPT
variable for psql.

Is there any way to do that? I couldn't find anything useful ...

5432 josh@josh# SHOW search_path;
   search_path
----------------
  "$user",public
(1 row)

 From here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/functions-info.html
current_schema[()]

Maybe combined with
%`command`

    The output of command, similar to ordinary "back-tick" substitution.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/app-psql.html

But that runs a shell command, how's that supposed to get the
search_path?  I've been trying to think up a solution to that and
can't come up with one.

I tried running a psql command using current_schema. It got the schema, unfortunately on a different session than the one I was in. So no it will not work.
