In case you're not aware of it, sql-mode allows you not only to interact with psql from within Emacs, but also to write SQL queries in a buffer and then send the whole buffer or the region. It's not documented in the info pages, but from within Emacs, one of these should get you started: C-h P sql M-x sql-help Or just do: M-x sql-postgres - Ben
