(Now featuring documentation: fixed some typos, expanded the
...
Envrironment and Files section, explained exactly what -w
does)
This is a patch which allows pg_ctl to make an intelligent
guess as to the proper port when running 'psql -l' to
determine if the database has started up (the -w flag).
The environment variable PGPORT is used. If that is not found,
it checks if a specific port has been set inside the postgresql.conf
file. If it is has not, it uses the port that Postgres was
compiled with.

This patch includes a lot of minor cleanups to the SGML documentation,
...
including:
- replacing all the appropriate usages of <citetitle>PostgreSQL
...</citetitle> with &cite-user;, &cite-admin;, and so on
- fix an omission in the EXECUTE documentation
- add some more text to the EXPLAIN documentation
- improve the PL/PgSQL RETURN NEXT documentation (more work to do here)
- minor markup fixes

Put refentrytitle contents on the same line as the tag.
Otherwise, leading whitespace is propagated into the product, which
(at least) messes up the ToC layout.
Remove (some) docinfo tags containing dates. Best to omit if the dates
are not accurate; maybe use CVS dates instead or leave them out.
