in thread Correct syntax for using \copy to import a file into a Postgres db

thx,

i tried \\c but that also wasn't working.

your second idea was a good one. i printed $s2 and entered it directly into psql.

that, however, revealed another issue:

btest-> \copy (testingtable) FROM 'data.tsv' data.tsv: No such file or directory

now i have to figure out what directory i'm in and what directory the file is in. according to some documentation, i should be able to get the first by entering in \!pwd, however, psql is telling me that is an invalid command.
