Thread: TODO list and "hyphen"
Hi, I was looking at the TODO: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.TODO.html "A hyphen, "-", marks changes that will appear in the upcoming 8.4 release." Well, making a search for the "-" sign is complicated... it's obviously used for a lot of other things... could you use another character?

Cancel backend only cancels the current query but later queries are still executed. Kill was never officially supported as a way to terminate a backend, but it will be in 8.4 and there is an SQL function to do it too. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

I think a search for ' -' will show you the items you want. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

If it is a problem, I think some other symbol should be used. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

using opera it doesn't work... and with Firefox you still get a lot of not-wanted matches...
Of course, this is not a "problem", I was just thinking that another char would be better.
