Peter Eisentraut 333224c99e Update documentation editor setup instructions
Now that the documentation sources are in XML rather than SGML, some of
the documentation about the editor, or more specifically Emacs, setup
needs updating.  The updated instructions recommend using nxml-mode,
which works mostly out of the box, with some small tweaks in
emacs.samples and .dir-locals.el.

Also remove some obsolete stuff in .dir-locals.el.  I did, however,
leave the sgml-mode settings in there so that someone using Emacs
without emacs.samples gets those settings when editing a *.sgml file.

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.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

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.  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
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
