<title>Standard Modules</title>
<para>
This section contains information regarding the standard modules which
can be found in the <literal>contrib</literal> directory of the
PostgreSQL distribution. These are porting tools, analysis utilities,
and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system,
mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental
to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
</para>
<para>
Some modules supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. In
these cases, you will need to run <literal>make</literal> and <literal>make
install</literal> in <literal>contrib/module</literal>. After you have
installed the files you need to register the new entities in the database
system by running the commands in the supplied .sql file. For example,
<programlisting>
$ psql -d dbname -f module.sql
</programlisting>
