postgresql - Display select results vertically in psql, as is done by MySQL's G

In MySQL, you can terminate a select query with G (as opposed to g) to display the results vertically:

select * from foo G

***************
 id: 1
bar: Hello
***************
 id: 2
bar: World

How can one do the same thing for PostgreSQL using psql?

You can do this by enabling Expanded display.

Toggle this setting via x. For example:

# x
Expanded display is on.
# x
Expanded display is off.

When on, results are shown in tabular (vertical) form:

-[ RECORD 1 ]
id  | 1
bar | Hello
-[ RECORD 2 ]
id  | 2
bar | World

You can run this for a single command by using the xgx suffix to toggle expanded display on, run the query, then toggle it off again.

select * from foo xgx

Or via psql param as shared here

psql db -xc 'select * from table'
