I'm OK with this in principle. But I must say I was quite confused because the "@" symbol appears in diametrically opposite contexts: a) designate local users on the server b) designate global users in the client Perhaps I might have been less confused if meaning (b) used a different character, say "username!". This might be equally confusing to the next person -- just my observation. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
