Yeah, there's also some regexp-related SRFs, as well as a boatload of built-in SRFs that are mainly meant to underlie views. I guess we could try to force all of those into this page, but it doesn't really seem like it'd be an improvement. I took out the claim that these were all such functions, instead. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
