Hi Michael/Yutaka,
Thanks for your reply.
I discovered the cause of the problem (I think) - I just do not know why
it happens.
PROBLEM (again): DEFUNCT processes under Win2K not seen under Win98.
I am running cygwin-2.125.2.10 (postgresql 7.1) and cigipc-1.11-1
installed in Jan 2002.

Yes it's speculation. The implementation at the DB isn't there, neither are
the associated DBD/JDBC/ODBC drivers for it.
Basically if the fallacies aren't in postgresql _if_ the decision is to
implement it, I'd be happy.
I was just noting (perhaps superfluously) that backspaces and friends

Folks,
If I might just say ... I think it's phenominal that somebody has
started working on the PGAccess code again and I really look forward to
testing (and documenting!) your work.
If you don't read the Novice list, new Postgres users have been dying
for a PGAccess update for the last year. Y

We should probably get rid of using shell scripts for application programs
altogether, for a number of reasons besides this one, such as the
inability to properly handle input

I still don't see why. You are merely speculating about implementation
fallacies that aren't there.
