Subject: possible to set continuation prompt in sql*plus?
> Greetings all,
>
> I've set up my login.sql so that my prompt shows my username & the sid of
the db to which I'm connected. This works well, but has made it tough to
drag-select text b/c now the first line sticks way out relative to the
continuation lines, like so:
>
> rpardee_at_prod> select username
> 2 from dba_users
> 3 where username like '%MC%' ;
>
> Is it possible to specify the prompt that shows on continuation lines (or
otherwise pad it out) in sql*plus?

> Thanks!
