It does fail when the example-with-tab is cut and pasted directly into a terminal window, which is exactly as expected because that's exactly what would happen if you interactively typed a TAB at that point. psql doesn't see anything to complete with so it just beeps at you, without adding anything to the input. If you need to enter stuff like this interactively in psql, use -n to disable readline. You really shouldn't need -n to prevent tab completion in a -f file though. If you can reproduce that then file a bug against whatever version of readline you're using. regards, tom lane - Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
