But I'm sure you could write yourself a (non-volatile?) function which
would wrap your booleans whenever select * is NOT used.
select id, name, bw(isAlien) from individual;
create or replace function bw(boolean b)
returns char as &&
begin;
/ /if b then
return 'F';
else
return 'T';
end;
&&
etc.
return
