I think we need more than one synopsis line. Maybe Usage: pg_xlogdump [OPTION] --path=PATH --start=STARTPOS pg_xlogdump [OPTION] [STARTSEG [ENDSEG]] And then, under "options", do not list --path and --start (because that'd imply they can be used when STARTSEG is specified, which I understand they cannot). Do we have any other possible operation mode? IIRC those are the only two possible modes. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
