Обсуждение: help with select * from functionname() ?

Hi All
I'd like to be able to issue the command

select * from functionname();

however it seems that the parser won't accept the () on the function
name. (I'm trying to model this on chapter 9 of the programmers guide).
Is anyone able to suggest to me what i might be doing wrong?
thanks
Glenn

Uh, using an old Postgres?  We support that syntax beginning in 7.3...

I don't want to input the command "\pset pager" each time when I start the
psql.
How can I do that?

From the manpage:

ENVIRONMENT
       HOME   Directory for initialization file (.psqlrc) and command
history file (.psql_history).
