Re: [PATCHES] minor documentation improvements
Patch applied. I will now go through and lowercase all the GUC variable names, as agreed upon. --- Neil Conway wrote: This patch makes a few minor improvements to the docs: make the varname conventions more consistent, and improve the ANALYZE ref page. -Neil [ Attachment, skipping... ] ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly -- Bruce Momjian| http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup.| Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend

If you want to change them all to lowercase, that would be fine by me. At least it would prevent more people being confused into inconsistencies in the future. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

There are significantly more than 2 uses of upper-case GUC names in the docs (more like 10 by my guess), but in any case, the current usage is inconsistent. So, is upper-case or lower-case better?

Currently, the documentation contains about 2 GUC variable names in upper case, the rest is lower case. (The exception are the list headings in the main description in runtime.sgml, which are all upper case. That is a bit inconsistent, but I think it's OK, because here they sort of serve as section titles.) Okay, that seems reasonable.
