One final pgEdit beta before the release of PostgreSQL 8.0. In addition to bug fixes and usability improvements, 1.0b6 includes the following new features:

Direct execution of SQL and psql commands without including them in the document. Commands can be executed at the bottom of the editor window with full completion support, command history navigation, and syntax coloring.

Support for copying syntax colored SQL with HTML and DocBook markup. This produces nice looking output for documentation and publishing. HTML and XSL style specifications are generated from your pgEdit syntax color preferences.

pgEdit 1.0b5 is now available. This version adds support for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000. In addition to some minor bug fixes, this version includes some new editing features and another option for executing files with psql. The final version of pgEdit is expected shortly after PostgreSQL 8.0 is released.

The next beta version of pgEdit is available for evaluation. This version includes a new tab completion feature based on the implementation in psql. In addition, there are 14 other completion commands where you can request a specific type of completion (e.g. table, column, function). As with all pgEdit commands, the completion commands can be bound to any key sequence of your choosing.

pgEdit version 1.0b3 is now available for both Macintosh and Windows. This is the first public beta; feel free to download and evaluate pgEdit. Send bug reports, requests, and any other feedback to the email address provided on the support page.

Beta testing for the Macintosh version of pgEdit starts today. The Macintosh version runs on OS X 10.3 and later. Beta testing for the Windows version of pgEdit is expected to begin in November.
