Subject: [GENERAL] limit select question

I've been asked if there is a way to LIMIT the number of results
displayed
when doing a SELECT with postgresql, by a former user of mysql.
Wasn't
sure if there is an easy way to do this or not. I've don't it
before, but
in a very round about way... any suggestions.
