I found some functions of the C++ binding library
that are not or scarcely documented, namely:
  int GetIsNull(int tup_num, int field_num);
  int GetIsNull(int tup_num, const char* field_name);
  int GetLine(char* string, int length);
  void PutLine(const char* string);
  const char* OidStatus();
  int EndCopy();

I would like to complete the documentation at these points,
and maybe add some small example C++ programs.

In which form should I write the documentation and where
should I send it?
(I have no possibility at the moment to test SGML documents,
i.e. convert them to HTML.)

Regards,
