I want to share this with everyone as the second command needed some try-and-error on my part.</p>
<p>Adding the following to <code>~/.vimrc</code></p>
<pre tabindex="0"><code>map <F2> :.w !psql<CR>
map <F3> :.,/;/w !psql<CR>
map <F4> :w !psql<CR>
</code></pre><p>will enable you to execute the current line in psql with <code>F2</code>. <code>F3</code> executes the current line and the next lines until a<code>;</code>.
<code>F4</code> executes the whole file.</p>
<p>This can easily adapted to your needs. If you have any questions or improvemnts feel free to use the chat below.</p>
