You're mistake is that you think a transaction is related to your
terminal, but it is in fact tied to the psql session you are running...
Your first example is running one psql instance per terminal, hence one
transaction per terminal, while in your second example the transaction
is terminated each time psql finishes to run. Basically what you're
asking for is to keep a transaction opened by one session (the first
psql execution) and connect to it with the second session (the second
psql call) and continue the transaction which was opened by the first
one... which I'm pretty sure is wrong to want. It is likely possible to
do (using PREPARE TRANSACTION), but even likelier that it is a wrong
thing to do in normal cir***stances. If you'll say what you really want
to do, I bet you'll get a lot more useful advices...
Cheers,
Csaba.
