Well, I just started to write a Python script, but it showes to
make some effort to accomplish the same I did in a simple shell script
before. I use an intermediate output using some PostgreSQL functions
and CASE statements to get a raw ASCII output which was formatted
quite nicely for this purpose by a single SELECT statement into
a proper sized table. It would cost a fair amount of Perl/Python/Whatever
code to do the same.
I know that this is a problem which is quite hard in plain SQL but
I've thought I could do some magic using plpgsql-FUNCTIONS but I
failed to solve it.
Kind regards
Andreas.
