4.2 User Attributes...

A user can also set personal defaults for many of the run-time configuration settings described in
Section 3.4. For example, if for some reason you want to disable index scans
(hint: not a good idea) anytime you connect, you can use

ALTER USER myname SET enable_indexscan TO off;

This will save the setting (but not set it immediately) and in subsequent
connections it will appear as though SET geqo TO off; had been called right
before the session started.

This probably should read:
