Modified files:
        contrib/dbase  : README.dbf2pg dbf2pg.1 dbf2pg.c 

Log message:
        dbf2pg  -  Insert  xBase-style  .dbf-files  into  a PostgreSQL-table
        There is an option "-s oldname=newname", which changes the old field name of
        the dbf-file to the newname in PostgeSQL. If the length of the new name is 0,
        the field is skiped. If you want to skip the first field of the dbf-file,
        you get the wildest error-messages from the backend.
        dbf2pg load the dbf-file via "COPY tablename FROM STDIN". If you skip the
        first field, it is an \t to much in STDIN.
        
        A fix could be an counter j=0, which increments only, if a field is imported
        (IF (strlen(fields[h].db_name)> 0) j++. And only if j > 1 (if an other field is
        imported) the \t is printed.
        
        An other small bug in the README:
        -s start
        Specify  the  first record-number in the xBase-file
        we will insert.
        should be
        -e start
        Specify  the  first record-number in the xBase-file
        we will insert.
