I hadn't done that since 6.2 or thereabouts... I have one request for improvement: In the CREATE DATABASE chapter it may be usefull to include the options for LATIN1 etc. I was a bit surprized that they weren't there seeing the international following of the software. For a newcomer this could save a certain number of hours of headscratching when the accentuated characters don't show up... If I was to rate the manual I would say "better than many manuals for shrinkwrap software but loses steam towards the end".
