Tom Lane 7f7e8cc3f2 Allow commas in BEGIN, START TRANSACTION, and SET TRANSACTION, as required
by the SQL standard.  For backwards compatibility, however, continue to
accept the syntax without.  Minor editorialization in the reference pages
for these commands, too.

Bruce Momjian 2a5b6a7c9b This patch fixes a few missed GUC variables that were still upper case,
makes a few more small improvements to runtime.sgml, and makes some SGML
conventions more consistent.

Bruce Momjian be2b660ecd 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

Peter Eisentraut b65cd56240 Read-only transactions, as defined in SQL. 2003-01-10 22:03:30 +00:00
Bruce Momjian 19e0e35bcd The attached patch implements START TRANSACTION, per SQL99. The
functionality of the command is basically identical to that of
BEGIN; it just accepts a few extra options (only one of which
PostgreSQL currently implements), and is standards-compliant.
The patch includes a simple regression test and documentation.

[ Regression tests removed, per Peter.]

Thomas G. Lockhart 03a321d214 Use PostgreSQL consistantly throughout docs. Before, usage was split evenly
between Postgres and PostgreSQL.

Peter Eisentraut ffb8f73890 Bunch of copy fitting and style sheet tweakage to get decent looking print

Merge related reference pages.

Peter Eisentraut 2c0edb3c86 Separated set constraints and set transaction reference pages, revised set
reference page to new configuration system. Big update to administrator's
guide, chapters Runtime environment, Client authentication, and User
management, the latter two were part of the old Security chapter.
