My advice: don't do that, it just looks weird. Both of these look
fine to me:
$ psql test
psql (8.4devel)
SSL connection (cipher: 2343, bits: 512)
Type "help" for help.
$ psql test
psql (8.4devel)
SSL connection (cipher: 2343, bits: 512)
WARNING: Console code page (323) differs from Windows code page (2323)
8-bit characters might not work correctly. See psql reference
page "Notes for Windows users" for details.
WARNING: psql version 8.4.0, server version 8.3.1.
Some psql features might not work.
Type "help" for help.
Also, maybe it's just me, but I think you have put the order of these
optional things exactly backwards. I'd do
$ psql test
psql (8.4devel)
WARNING: psql version 8.4.0, server version 8.3.1.
Some psql features might not work.
WARNING: Console code page (323) differs from Windows code page (2323)
8-bit characters might not work correctly. See psql reference
page "Notes for Windows users" for details.
SSL connection (cipher: 2343, bits: 512)
Type "help" for help.
Why? Well, it's just more nearly the way it used to be.
