Being that I'm one of the ones responsible, let me make it very clear that the current nspostgres driver is a derivative work from the ACS/pg (OpenACS) postgres driver, which is IN TURN a derivative of the original Postgres95 example driver written by Jim Davidson for AOLserver 2.x long long ago. I have been involved in that driver since AOLserver 2.2.1 and PostgreSQL 6.2.1 and tested the beta driver for AS2.2.1 for AOL long long ago (still have the e-mails, too). HOWEVER, the AS 2.x docs were and are much better than anything since. Basically everything you mention, Tom, was addressed fully in the AS2.x docs. I still have the AS2.3.3 doc set somewhere in PDF form. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu -- Lamar Owen CE WGCR AM 720 and WWW.WGCR.NET Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 Peter 4:11 -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
