well, ain't that surprising to see so many open-source developers
living in denial and sugestions to RTFM rather than actually coping
wth the problem? are you to be taken seriously?
As a C programmer, I'm in the same league as most of you guys, so
while i can really contribute code and my talk is cheap, it's the best
i can do: bug you with feature requests.
So:

Where is the mention of either of these on the CREATE FUNCTION page?

And anyway, what is your actual complaint?
my complaint is that, like i said, "timestamp with time zone" is no
good substitute for a simple "datetime". Here, someone suggested a
CREATE DOMAIN to create an alias for it. Why isn't it provided there
out-of-the-box by default? So you have the SQL standard timestamp and
the industry standard datetime.
and, while $$ is a whole lot better than '', why do we really need
these? Why not a normal, simple, begin end block or {}? People in
the industry don't like hacks and the open-source world is full of it,
though it's getting better.
I think this is all valid criticism, but you wanna play deaf, that's
up to you guys. cheers
and Tom, i don't really want a GUI: psql's use of GNU readline
autocompletion is far better than M$'s stupid Query Analizer standard
editor and matching it up with vim gets better yet.
