With all the concern about parsing in this thread, perhaps it's best if this config-overrides file not be of the same syntax as postgresql.conf at all. If the interactive form of these overrides will be "SET PERMANENTLY work_mem TO 65MB;", why not make the override config file use the same syntax; since a parser for it'll have to exist anyway? Maybe some XML bloat. Or, since you mentioned it, perhaps SQLite itself, since some people on the thread seem to want sql-like syntaxes to maintain it? [Personally, we maintain perl scripts that apply patches to the default postgresql.conf; and check those in to source control. I don't think I'd use this override file feature.] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
