Re: Search the schema

Of course, makes sense, which is why I made the feature request I did (ie, search). Would you consider adding regex
expressionsto the search?<br /><br /><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 3:13 AM, Guillaume Lelarge <span

checkif A(int, int) is used in this<br /> function, but not function A(int, text) means we need to add something<br />
thatwill understand the PL/pgsql code. I won't work on that. You can if<br /> you want, but I won't.<br /><br /> The
ideaI want to work on is to search specific string in a source<br /> code, that's all.<br /><div class="HOEnZb"><div
