August 1994 draft standard.
Use the ecpg support libraries to write the CLI interface?
Date and Darwen claim that CLI is a more modern and flexible approach...

PgDatabase::DisplayTuples and PgDatabase::PrintTuples. This is incorrect
according to strict interpretation of the C++ spec, and some compilers
will reject it. Also silence g++ warning about unused parameter.
the ecpg Makefiles use a variable DESTDIR which is never defined
except by debian/rules makefile, in which case the ecpg makefiles
expand wrong pathnames. If we want to support a DESTDIR root it
must be done consistently in all the makefiles, not just in ecpg.

do the right thing: look for a NOTICE message from the backend before we
close our side of the socket. 6.4 libpq did not reliably print the backend's
hara-kiri message, 'The Postmaster has informed me ...', because it only
did the right thing if connection closure was detected during a read
attempt instead of a write attempt.

It will all need to be checked in. I used the char *rcsid[] method for
cvs ids so it can be strings | grep'd to find version numbers. The new
version for the library is 3.0.
Run configure from src/ to create the Makefile and it should be good to
go.
I did minimal documentation references in the README, I'll see if I can
get something to Tom Lockhart rather quickly.
