Re: [SQL] How to create crude report with psql and/or plpgsql

Hello Andrew,

I do not need HTML, just plain text or maybe PDF.

It would be nice if there was one extra level for RAISE as in:
RAISE PRINT 'Whatever' 
That would not send the message the log but only to the console.
One could do alot with that.
