I'm not in love with the name "dollar quoting" either ... but "here text" would be quite misleading. See the archives for the discussions that led us to develop our definition. The features that go by that name usually have dependencies on formatting (ie newline boundaries) that we specifically rejected. Right now would be a fine time to invent a better name if you can think of one ... regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
