I agree that the incorrect claims about defaults for --superuser, --createrole, and --createdb should be gotten rid of, since there are no defaults for these options and createuser will force you to answer Y or N for these options if you didn't specify on the command line. Simple doc patch attached. I think the "Examples" section demonstrates that createuser will prompt for this information without having to belabor this point in the doc. Josh
