First, thanks for the docs. They have been very helpful


In section 2.1 Introduction, I read




$ cd ..../src/tutorial

$ psql -s mydb

...

mydb=> \i basics.sql



Specifically, when I typed in "\i basics.sql" I got the error


<italic>basics.sql: No such file or directory</italic>


when I typed in "\i basics.source" it seemed to work.


I believe the docs should be changed from "\i basics.sql" to "\i
basics.source"



hope this was helpful


thanks
