Thanks. That worked.
Is there a better way to use "\g" than running it after running the query
initially?
The description says "send query to backend (and results in [file] or
|pipe)". For starters when I do "\g" it doesn't seem to go to the backend.
It processes the last query and I don't get the prompt back until it is
done.
