hi.
new patch attached.
now \df substring looks like:
List of functions
Schema | Name | Result data type | Argument
data types | Type
------------+-----------+------------------+--------------------------------------------------+------
pg_catalog | substring | bit | bits bit, start integer
| func
pg_catalog | substring | bit | bits bit, start integer,
count integer | func
pg_catalog | substring | bytea | bytes bytea, start
integer | func
pg_catalog | substring | bytea | bytes bytea, start
integer, count integer | func
pg_catalog | substring | text | string text, pattern text
| func
pg_catalog | substring | text | string text, pattern
text, escape_character text | func
pg_catalog | substring | text | string text, start
integer | func
pg_catalog | substring | text | string text, start
integer, count integer | func
Table 9.10 also have doc entry for substring.
in Table 9.10, i have:
substring ( string text, pattern text ) → text
substring ( string text, pattern text, escape_character text) → text
we can put it into one,
but one is based on POSIX regular expression, another one is based on SQL,
the difference is big, that's why put it into two.
