Possible error in 8 beta documentation "basics.sql" > "basics.source"
First, thanks for the docs. They have been very helpful
In section 2.1 Introduction, I read
$ cd ..../src/tutorial
$ psql -s mydb
...
mydb=> \i basics.sql
Specifically, when I typed in "\i basics.sql" I got the error
basics.sql: No such file or directory
when I typed in "\i basics.source" it seemed to work.
I believe the docs should be changed from "\i basics.sql" to "\i
basics.source"
hope this was helpful
thanks

No, that would be wrong. However it does seem like a good idea to
transpose the directions in the README file into the SGML docs ...
you evidently missed the need to "make" the tutorial files.
