@Phil Anna's main reaction seems to be "it doesn't look much better than Ascii Art", which may be because I made not much effort to prettify the output. I was trying to show we could get tables without messing with the layout of the page.

A: Please can we have markdown tables on dba.se

a table: |Item |Value| |--------|----:| |Computer|$1600| |Phone | $12| |Pipe | $1| a wide table: |Item |Value| |--------|----:| |Computer|$160000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000...

I've prettied up the table output a bit, does that look better? ^^^^

Q: How do I use Puppet's ralsh with resource types provided by modules?

I have installed the postgresql module from Puppetforge. How can I query Postgresql resources using ralsh ? None of the following works: # ralsh postgresql::db # ralsh puppetlabs/postgresql::db # ralsh puppetlabs-postgresql::db

his clarifications aren't helping much either

Marian

@ChrisTravers well, sorry for that. A -1 should help him understand.

Q: did I not provide a possible answer?

While admittedly so basic I nearly didn't post it, isn't this a legitmate answer to the asker's question? Oracle UPDATE single record with multiple WHERE conditions Just want to make sure I'm following the community rules...
