...</citetitle> with &cite-user;, &cite-admin;, and so on

- fix an omission in the EXECUTE documentation

- add some more text to the EXPLAIN documentation

4ca28eb7c7 I just discovered, that there is missing a const when passing a buffer
to  PQescapeBytea and PQunescapeBytea. I fixed it and tried to create a
usable  diff (I'm not so familar to diff).

1276356268 PostgreSQL 7.2.1 Documentation
Chapter 1. libpq - C Library
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries

I found the line
"The result string length does not include the terminating zero byte of the result."
is not right.
The result string length does indeed include the terminating zero byte.

7f4981f4af I'm giving a try at some TODO items. Currently it's the turn of the
PGPASSWORDFILE environment variable.  I have modified libpq to make use
of this variable.  I present the first cut here.

Currently the format for the file should be

host:port:database:user:password

004293317f Here's a patch adding documentation for the PQescapeBytea function to
libpq.sgml

I was trying (but gave up) to cross-reference back to the input escape
table in the User's Guide, but could not get the documentation to
compile with a cross-book xref (missing IDREF error). Can a cross-book
xref be done?

1834987fb6 I've attached the fixed version of the patch below. After the
discussion on pgsql-hackers (especially the frightening memory dump in
<12273.999562219@sss.pgh.pa.us>), we decided that it is best not to
use identifiers from an untrusted source at all.  Therefore, all
claims of the suitability of PQescapeString() for identifiers have
been removed.

f5944af8ba Include directory rearrangement
Client headers are no longer in a subdirectory, since they have been made
namespace-clean.

Internal libpq headers are in a private subdirectory.

Server headers are in a private subdirectory.  pg_config has a new option
to point there.

24641335cf The portion about the PQgetssl() function in the libpq documentation
appears to be duplicated (two identical <listitems> right after each
other). Here is a quick patch to remove one instance of it.
