Hi,
I happened to feel need for something like Oracle's connect-by mechanism. In the contribs I found Joe Conways `tablefunc' but I missed some features there. So I had a look at the source code. First of all thanks a lot to Joe, I learned much of your code. Anyway, when I added the features I desire I changed it so heavily that one probably won't recognize it as being derived. By the way I think I removed some memory leaks (Sorry, Joe). I would be glad if someone liked it and perhaps if it found a place in the contribs in any way. I suppose it is even better than Oracle's connect-by. You may have a look at it on <http://www.bertram-scharpf.de/tmp/connectby.tar.gz> There's no documentation yet, only a lightweight example. Postgres-style license, of course. Comments welcome.
