If simple things are hard to implement, get yourself better tools.
Each time we get on the topic of improving scripting abilities for our
interactive tool, it's always the same problem: having to invent a
scripting language with a whole parser is just too much work.
Maybe it's time we step back a little and consider real scripting
solutions to embed into psql, and pgbench too:

http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/ LGPL Scheme, Javascript, Emacs Lisp
http://www.lua.org/ MIT Lua
