I wasn't either, that's why I gave up. It didn't seem worth doing a major GUC reorganization on the eve of beta unless there was a clear win. I think there may be a way to improve this but I don't think it's we should take the time now to figure out what it is. Let's revisit it for 9.1, and just improve the error reporting for now. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
