Hi again,

I need to record properties that belongs to an specific database (and

Depending on how you intend to use these variables, this sounds like a fine idea to me. What are your problems with it?

The idea is storing values that can be remotely accessed by a
C++/libpqxx application. So, I just see that the first alternative
that I proposed (the use of \set variables) is really not good. But
the rest remains...

Now, the only option I have is to create a table, define one column
per variable, for using just one row. This can be accessed by a select
sql command...

You know other alternatives ???
