Hello
I looked so we can enhance autocomple about: autocomplete any
datatypes for casting and autocomplete any psql varibles. This need
just add support suffix and prefix strings to joining final string.
these variables can be filled by specified handlers - like now. Some
proposed values:
prefix ::" --- data type --- suffix "
prefix :: --- data type
prefix :" -- psql variable -- suffix "
prefix :' -- psql variable -- suffix '
prefix : -- psql variable
ideas? comments?
Regards
Pavel Stehule

hmm .. I looked deeper - and I was wrong - readline doesn't support
any prefix or suffix variables - so it isn't simple as I expected.
Probably we can simulate some with combination
rl_basic_word_break_characters += : and rl_completer_quote_characters
= "'\""; but we are not able to identify : and ::
