Hello,
I have written some lisp functions that allow the output from an SQL buffer
to be redirected to another buffer. It is designed to work with Alex
Schroeder's sql-mode and Postgres. The original intent was to be able to formulate
queries in, say, a LaTeX-mode buffer and have the results returned
there for subsequent formatting with latex. If it ever works reliably
I intend to make it available to the Emacs community.
The problem I am having is that when the output appears in the latex
(AucTeX) buffer the column headings are lost. For example, this query,
executed in an sql-mode buffer and returning the output to that buffer
produces this output:
-- This outputs the preamble
select'\\documentclass{article}
\\title{GAC Budget 2004}
\\author{Roger Mason \\\\ (with help from Karen Johnston \\& Karen Dawe)}
\\usepackage{float}
\\begin{document}
\\maketitle\n';
?column?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\documentclass{article}
\title{GAC Budget 2004}
\author{Roger Mason \\ (with help from Karen Johnston \& Karen Dawe)}
\usepackage{float}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
(1 row)
Apart from the ^M (which is easy to clean up), this is the normal, expected output.
The same query, with output redirected to a LaTeX buffer produces
this:
...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\documentclass{article}
\title{GAC Budget 2004}
\author{Roger Mason \\ (with help from Karen Johnston \& Karen Dawe)}
\usepackage{float}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
(1 row)
'C-x =' on the ... and ^M characters yields: RET. Only in the LaTeX
buffer does this character suppress the rest of the line.
I have looked at the coding systems for the LaTeX and sql-mode
buffers with describe-current-coding-system: they are identical.
If anyone has any idea how to fix this problem I'd be most grateful.
Thanks,
Roger Mason
