The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference: 1348
Logged by: Brad Bowman

Email address: pg (AT) bereft (DOT) net

PostgreSQL version: 7.2.1

Operating system: Debian linux

Description: Wishlist: \pset expanded with value

Details:


I hope this is an appropriate forum for this request.
Apologies if I got it wrong.

Within psql:
\pset expanded 1

ignores the value parameter, as expected from
the documentation. This means that I can't set it
to a known value in scripts run with \i.


Thanks

TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings

I see your problem. Added to TODO:

* Allow psql \pset boolean variables to set to fixed values, rather than
toggle
