33f0108df8 Cause FETCH 1 to return the current cursor row, or zero if at
beginning/end of cursor.

Have MOVE return 0/1 depending on cursor position.

Matches SQL spec.

Pass cursor counter from parser as a long rather than int.

Doc updates.

d274105942 > There is an ugly little problem with the DB wrapper class.
>
> In pg.py the attributes of DB are defined as being the same as
> the attributes of the corresponding pgobject "db", using the following

...

> The problem is that the attributes of db (which are read only)
> are not static (they are actually function calls to PostgreSQL),
> especially "status" and "error", but those attributes are copied
> and this is done only once when initializing the DB object.
>
> So, in effect, only the attribute "db.error" of a DB instance

> Don't copy the (read only) attributes of the pgobject to the
> DB object, but only the methods, and all of them, like this:
>
> --------------- change in pg.py ------------------
> # Create convience methods, in a way that is still overridable.
> for e in self.db.__methods__:
>  setattr(self, e, getattr(self.db, e))
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Furthermore, make an addition to the documentation of the
> DB wrapper class (i.e. in pygresql-pg-db.html):
> After the sentence "All pgobject methods are included in this class also."
> add the following sentence "The pgobject read-only attributes can be
> accessed py adding the prefix 'db.' to them."

40c4472e22 TODO marked as done:
* Add schema, cast, and conversion backslash commands to psql

I had to create a new publically available function,
pg_conversion_is_visible, as it seemed to be missing from the catalogs.
This required me to do no small amount of hacking around in namespace.c

I have updated the \? help and sgml docs.

\dc - list conversions [PATTERN]
\dC - list casts
\dn list schemas

I didn't support patterns with casts as there's nothing obvious to match
against.

Catalog version incremented --- initdb required.

b0422b215c Preliminary code review for domain CHECK constraints patch: add documentation,
make VALUE a non-reserved word again, use less invasive method of passing
ConstraintTestValue into transformExpr, fix problems with nested constraint
testing, do correct thing with NULL result from a constraint expression,
remove memory leak.  Domain checks still need much more work if we are going
to allow ALTER DOMAIN, however.

e87e82d2b7 Attached are two small patches to expose md5 as a user function -- including
documentation and regression test mods. It seemed small and unobtrusive enough
to not require a specific proposal on the hackers list -- but if not, let me
know and I'll make a pitch. Otherwise, if there are no objections please apply.
