Currently no real cursors are supported - you can build a workaround using
a loop - this works in most cases.
I have found a doc (a very good one) that describes porting from Oracle to
Postgres - accidentally I have lost the link but I remeber that I have
found it on altavista with "+plpgsql +plsql +postgres +oracle" or something
like that.
