Last Committed Transaction

The only thing I can think of is to run CHECKPOINT then look at
pg_controldata. Another idea is to insert into a table, then look at
that rows xmin values to see the transaction id.

Is there any way to programmatically determine the last committed

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
