Thread: indexterm of pg_notify
Hi, In the index of current document, "pg_notify" is tied to the word "Notes". This is odd for me. http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/bookindex.html How about the patch to tie "pg_notify" to "NOTIFY"?

I think that's because the "Notes" section of that page is the only place in the documentation that pg_notify() is mentioned... I agree it looks a little weird, but it's nice that it jumps to the specific section of the page that is relevant. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company

Yeah, the link would be less useful if it just pointed to the whole
page. It would be nice though if the index entry said something more
specific than "Notes", perhaps "NOTIFY Notes". Is there a way to
control the label used for an index link?
