Hi, a friend of mine on Windows, is attempting to convert to using
PostgreSQL (and of course, I'm helping him).
The installation gave an option to run as an application, rather than as
a service.
Turns out, my friends login account has Admin privs, and postgres.exe

You'll want to evaluate pgBouncer to see if it meets your needs. It
works very well for general proxying, connection pooling.

Usual text hasn't strict syntax rules, so parser tries to recognize most
probable token. Something with '.', '-' and alnum characters is often a
filename, but filename is very rare finished or started by dot.
