Waiting for PostgreSQL 10 – psql: Add \gx command

On 7th of March, Stephen Frost committed patch:

psql: Add \gx command
 
It can often be useful to use expanded mode output (\x) for just a
single query.  Introduce a \gx which acts exactly like \g except that it
will force expanded output mode for that one \gx call.  This is simpler
than having to use \x as a toggle and also means that the user doesn't
have to worry about the current state of the expanded variable, or
resetting it later, to ensure a given query is always returned in
expanded mode.
 
Primairly Christoph's patch, though I did tweak the documentation and help
text a bit, and re-indented the tab completion section.
