Probably not worth the trouble, seeing that Apple has finally fixed the problem in 10.5 --- not tested by me, but a look at their source code on-line shows it's fixed: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.5/libedit-11/libedit/src/history.c regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
