Toggles between regular and expanded format. When expanded
format is enabled, query results are displayed in two
columns, with the column name on the left and the data on
- the right. This option only affects how normal query results
- are displayed; the output of <application>psql</application>
- meta-commands is always presented using the regular
- format. This mode is useful if the data wouldn't fit on the
+ the right. This mode is useful if the data wouldn't fit on the
screen in the normal <quote>horizontal</quote> mode.
