Uh, bloom is in /contrib, so we wouldn't mention that in the main docs, I think.

Yes, seems we should say that you can install your own methods that can be used, e.g., bloom. > Also, is it odd that we say essentially the same thing for literal USING as we > say for the replaceable /method/? Well, this is embarrassing. Someone reported there was no mention of USING in the CREATE INDEX docs, and I didn't see it either, so I added it. However, CREATE INDEX just lists the parameters, not the keywords, so it was already there as 'method', as you mentioned above. I will just remove the USING section I recently added. -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> https://momjian.us EDB https://enterprisedb.com Indecision is a decision. Inaction is an action.
