f7e508a759 Make the placeholder naming in the synopses of the SQL help more consistent 2009-09-19 10:23:27 +00:00

d129255077 Set SQL man pages to be section 7 by default, and only transform them to
another section if required by the platform (instead of the old way of
building them in section "l" and always transforming them to the
platform-specific section).

This speeds up the installation on common platforms, and it avoids some
funny business with the man page tools and build process.

6efae5bf2a Another round of editorialization on the text search documentation.
Notably, standardize on using "token" for the strings output by a parser,
while "lexeme" is reserved for the normalized strings produced by a
dictionary.

d321421d0a Simplify the syntax of CREATE/ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY by treating the
init options of the template as top-level options in the syntax.  This also
makes ALTER a bit easier to use, since options can be replaced individually.
I also made these statements verify that the tmplinit method will accept
the new settings before they get stored; in the original coding you didn't
find out about mistakes until the dictionary got invoked.

Under the hood, init methods now get options as a List of DefElem instead
of a raw text string --- that lets tsearch use existing options-pushing code
instead of duplicating functionality.

3e3bb36ee9 First rough cut at text search documentation: bare bones reference
pages for the new SQL commands.  I also committed Bruce's text search
introductory chapter, as-is except for fixing some markup errors,
so that there would be a place for the reference pages to link to.
