Hi,

I was looking at PL/pgSQL documentation and realized that contrary to
spec, I've been omitting the colon ':' from assignments, e.g. writing

  'x  = 5' rather than the correct
  'x := 5'

I don't see any error messages about this.

I am not aware of any problems due to this.  I suppose that if a
condition precedes this syntax, the code could be interpreted as an
equals test.

Should I immediately update all assignments ?

Are there known scenarios where this error becomes a problem ?

Regards, Charles
