I'm not sure what exactly you are missing, but the page
documenting the PREPARE statement (in the official Postgres
docs) pretty much says it all.  Also, it's easy to find
(Docs -> Reference -> SQL Commands -> PREPARE).

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/sql-prepare.html

However, maybe we're actually talking about completely
different things -- in that case I would like to know what
you are talking about.  :-)

"python" is more likely to pass unharmed through your spelling
checker than "perl".
