First, note the use of "obsolete" -- there are better ways to achieve what you want -- as opposed to "deprecated" -- the use is recommended against (for some reason to be specified). If we make a plan to remove the -o option sometime, we should use the latter and announce our intentions. That needs to be discussed, though. The above documentation is only in the development branch, so deriving a justification for removing that option from that is premature anyway. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
