Subject: pg_dumplo, thanks :)

Your pg_dumplo program looks to be very useful so far. I've tested it
and have had no trouble with PostgreSQL 7.0 beta. I can now easily make
a script that runs pg_dumplo and pg_dump to create a directory
containing a full dump of a database. Another script does a full
restore of a database. Very nice. I used "pg_dump -vof database.dump
database", which makes it dump the OIDs too since I use the OIDs of
records instead of serials.

Thanks. Wonder why this kind of utility is not part of the official
distribution? You might consider posting your pg_dumplo program on
http://www.freshmeat.net/ so that people can find it and get you some
more recognition! :)

How large of databases have you used pg_dumplo on? I hope that it can
handle things when the database gets large.
