Chapter 1. libpq - C Library
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries

I found the line
"The result string length does not include the terminating zero byte of the result."
is not right.
The result string length does indeed include the terminating zero byte.

PGPASSWORDFILE environment variable.  I have modified libpq to make use
of this variable.  I present the first cut here.

Currently the format for the file should be

host:port:database:user:password

Everyone using libpq and bytea is probably having to invent this wheel..

Patrick Welche

Fix up references to "PostgreSQL" rather than "Postgres". Was roughly
 evenly split between the two before. ref/ files not yet done.

libpq.sgml

I was trying (but gave up) to cross-reference back to the input escape
table in the User's Guide, but could not get the documentation to
compile with a cross-book xref (missing IDREF error). Can a cross-book
xref be done?
