Bruce Momjian 01798a06b9 Add batch mode, make new libpq section:
< * Add a libpq function to support Parse/DescribeStatement capability
< * Add PQescapeIdentifier() to libpq
< * Prevent PQfnumber() from lowercasing unquoted the column name
<
<   PQfnumber() should never have been doing lowercasing, but historically
<   it has so we need a way to prevent it

> 	  Currently, all query results are transfered to the libpq

> 	  use of the first result rows while the rest are transfered, or
> 	  held on the server waiting for them to be requested by libpq.
> 	  One complexity is that a query like SELECT 1/col could error
> 	  out mid-way through the result set.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
