Hi,
I noticed -k/--data-checksums is currently in the less commonly used
options part of the initdb --help output:
|Less commonly used options:
| -d, --debug generate lots of debugging output
| -k, --data-checksums use data page checksums
I think enough people use data checksums these days that it warrants to
be moved into the "normal part", like in the attached.
