The docs say:
The result of a SELECT command yielding multiple columns (but only one row) can be assigned to a record variable, row-type variable, or list of scalar variables. This is done by:
SELECT INTO target select_expressions FROM ...;
where target can be a record variable, a row variable, or a comma-separated list of simple variables and record/row fields. The select_expressions and the remainder of the command are the same as in regular SQL.
So, I'm trying to do the "list of scalar variables" target, but I can't get the syntax right. Something like
SELECT into varx, vary, varz, colx, coly, colz, FROM ....
I've tried parens and various other things but no luck.
