If a new function or > macro, where should they go? I'd go with a new function. There is no reason to try to "optimize" this code by putting it inline; if you're trying to delay, another few nanoseconds to enter a subroutine doesn't matter. As for where, maybe make a new file in src/port/. That would make it relatively easy to use the same function in client-side code if we needed to. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
