Re: pgsql-novice-request@postgresql.org

Hi Seneca, that helped, thanx.

I got another question:
is there a way that I can enter commands (i.e. psql) directly from my
user´s home directory or do I always have to go into ".../pgsql/bin"?
The PostgreSQL users guide I am using tells me that I have to change the
search path in "/etc/profile" - but I've got no idea what add into the
script.
