beta, at least get this stuff in.
ftipatch.txt - Updates to docs and scripts. Run in the fulltextindexdir
WARNING - Add to fulltextindex dir
uninstall.sql - Add to fulltextindex dir
with OPAQUE, as per recent pghackers discussion. I still want to do some
more work on the 'cstring' pseudo-type, but I'm going to commit the bulk
of the changes now before the tree starts shifting under me ...
* The ability to index more than one column in a table with a single
trigger.
* All uses of sprintf changed to snprintf to prevent users from crashing
Postgres.
* Error messages made more consistent
* Some changes made to bring it into line with coding requirements for
triggers specified in the docs. (ie. check you're a trigger before casting
your context)
* The perl script that generate indices has been updated to support indexing
multiple columns in a table.
* Fairly well tested in our development environment indexing a food
database's brand and description fields. The size of the fti index is
around 300,000 rows.
* All docs and examples upgraded. This includes specifying more efficient
index usage that was specified before, better examples that don't produce
duplicates, etc.

in pghackers list. Support for oldstyle internal functions is gone
(no longer needed, since conversion is complete) and pg_language entry
'internal' now implies newstyle call convention. pg_language entry
'newC' is gone; both old and newstyle dynamically loaded C functions
are now called language 'C'. A newstyle function must be identified
by an associated info routine. See src/backend/utils/fmgr/README.
