But on looking closer, I guess all the other ones are \pset boolean options that already behave properly. Actually, \a and \H are fairly bogus anyway, because they are "toggling" a setting that has more than two values. I wonder whether defining the argument as a boolean is really very sane. Perhaps it would be better to take the argument if given as just a regular format setting --- ie, with an argument, either of these would just be a shorthand for \pset format. regards, tom lane
