But it is a "sect1" in libpq. It should be a "sect1" somewhere that
makes more sense.
Right now it appears here:
Table of Contents
1. libpq - C Library
1.1. Introduction
1.2. Database Connection Functions
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.4. Asynchronous Query Processing
1.5. The Fast-Path Interface
1.6. Asynchronous Notification
1.7. Functions Associated with the COPY Command
1.8. libpq Tracing Functions
1.9. libpq Control Functions
1.10. Environment Variables
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.11. Files
1.12. Threading Behavior
1.13. Building Libpq Programs
1.14. Example Programs
It doesn't belong in libpq, and it doesn't belong in the Programmer's
Guide.
