Heya,
I need to set up some SET options in Oracle SQLplus command line program each time I use it, such as SET HEADING OFF and the likes to beautify my results. I found that I always have to input each line separately so Set different options and this is becoming annoying since I need to access it many times a day.
I found that there's no way to separate different SET commands with semicolumns because it doesn't accept it:
SET HEADING OFF; SET LINESIZE 100;
returns an error
A solution could be adding them to a control script and create a shell alias, but I know control scripts execute and then exit and don't return you control over the command line.
So, anybody knows another solution? Or am I missing something?
