Tom Lane [Mon, 9 Oct 2006 23:36:59 +0000 (23:36 +0000)]
Revise psql pattern-matching switches as per discussion.  The rule is now
to process all inclusion switches then all exclusion switches, so that the
behavior is independent of switch ordering.
Use of -T does not cause non-table objects to be suppressed.  And
the patterns are now interpreted the same way psql's \d commands do it,
rather than as pure regex commands; this allows for example -t schema.tab
to do what it should have been doing all along.  Re-enable the --blobs
switch to do something useful, ie, add back blobs into a dump they were
otherwise suppressed from.

Move processNamePattern into dumputils.c in preparation for using it in

Also, fix misinterpretation of patterns using regex | by adding parentheses
(same bug found previously in similar_escape()).  This should be backpatched.

improve the function to cope instead.  Per bug#2678 from Jeff Trout.  The
