I believe that is what Josh is proposing: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2003-07/msg00102.php > [Apache httpd] uses a three phase (if not more) documentation level. > The .conf file contains detailed instructions in an easy to read and > not-to-jargon-ish structure.

I agree that Apache's approach is primo. Often the .conf comments are enough to jog my memory about a directive I haven't used for a while. Or the comments are enough to let me know I don't need a directive, or that I need to go to the manual and read more. I appreciate that. michael ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
