$ psql -b bin/psql: invalid option -- 'b' Try "psql --help" for more information.
I got this error. ISTM you forgot to add 'b' into the third argument of getopt_long in startup.c.
fixed
<application>psql</application> merely prints all queries as they are sent to the server. The switch for this is
- <option>-e</option>.
+ <option>-e</option>. If set to <literal>errors</literal> then only
+ failed queries are displayed.
I think that where failed queries are output should be documented here. Otherwise users might misunderstand they are output to standard output like ECHO=all and queries do.
It's better to add "The switch for this is <option>-b</option>." into the doc.
I think that adding tab-completions of psql variables is good, but adding those of only ECHO and ECHO_HIDDEN seems half-baked. Probably this part should be split into separate patch.
