Oh. I think that I got confused here. I saw the backup component in the file name and this has been associated with the client/server choice that can be done in the options of pg_basebackup. But parse_bc_specification() does not include any knowledge about that: pg_basebackup does this job in parse_compress_options(). I agree that it looks possible to reuse that stuff in more places than just base backups. -- Michael
