Peter Eisentraut c828ec8820 Make pg_dump output more portable and more pleasing to look at.
The -n and -N options were removed.  Quoting is now smart enough to
supply quotes if and only if necessary.

Numerical types are now printed without quotes, except in cases of
special values such as NaN.

Boolean values printed as true and false.

Most string literals now do not escape whitespace characters (newlines,
etc.) for portability.

SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION argument is a string literal, to follow SQL.

Made commands output by pg_dump use consistent spacing and indentation.

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 several language
bindings, including C, C++, Perl, Python, and Tcl, as well as drivers
for JDBC and ODBC.

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/.
