[DOCS] runtime-config.sgml

2004-08-19 Thread Josh Berkus
Folks,

What do you think of breaking this file into two pieces?   Currently it's 
about 40 screens long.I was thinking one page for all the descriptive 
information (which I'm working on making longer) and one page for the 
"dictionary" of GUC options.

We currently have a one file per chapter arrangement, and I think it 
would be best if we kept that.  The more exceptions we add, the more 
difficult it will be to handle.

The version 8 doc needs to take windows OSs in to consideration, you should 
get more windows install on this version.

For example
The create tablespace command ..
You need to specify the drive 'C' colon ':' and unix slash '/' (not the 
windows slash '\')

create tablespace pgts location 'c:\pgts';
ERROR:  tablespace location must be an absolute path
create tablespace pgts location 'c:/pgts';
CREATE TABLESPACE
This is not documented.

You could use double-backslash, right?
