It would be a good idea for the system catalog descriptions to note that decompiling the binary form is better for tools to do. When you're just scavenging through the catalogs by hand, though, I think the source forms are convenient to have. The binary forms have their own disadvantages, btw, although I think the addition of dependency tracking has mitigated the worst ones. You may care to consult the archives for prior discussions of adsrc vs. adbin. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
