In beginning to investigate how we might extend PostgreSQL, have been looking through the docs. I think we want to try a first experiment with some little, example C program using the Type 1 PG extension interface. 


PG docs indicate the existing source code on functions/extensions are a good source of examples: Can someone point to a specific point in the source for a preferred example/success story which has been a useful jumpstart for them? 


We are by no means noobs in coding (!), but this will be our first PG extension... 


Thanks, Lou
