oid2name has done little effort to keep an interface consistent with other binary utilities: - -H was used instead of -h/-host. This option is now marked as deprecated, still its output is accepted to be backward-compatible. - -P has been removed from the code, and was still documented. - All options gain long aliases, making connection options more similar to other binaries. - Document environment variables which could be used: PGHOST, PGPORT and PGUSER. A basic set of TAP tests is added on the way, and documentation is cleaned up to be more consistent with other things.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains 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.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
