It's no longer compiled with the docs, afaics, and hasn't been since 7.1. We often get questions regarding this kind of basic information in #postgresql on irc.freenode.net, and people have commented that such a reference would be useful. I'd like to be able to point people to such a reference in the docs (we currently point then to books or other websites). Perhaps we should include it in the documentation again? Probably needs a little polishing, but that can be done. Thoughts? Michael Glaesemann grzm myrealbox com
