On http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/protocol.html we say:
"Higher level features built on this protocol (for example, how libpq
passes certain environment variables when the connection is
established) are covered elsewhere."
I cannot find anything that is obviously 'elsewhere' in the docs -
does that need fixing, or do my searching skills need improving?
