autocommit in 7.4

Only one small problem, how can I disable autocommit in Postgres 7.4 in
libpgtcl and psql?
I found something about .psqlrc but how is the syntax and how can I set it
for libpgtcl?

In psql, "\set AUTOCOMMIT off". In libpgtcl, I think you're out of luck
:-( ... AFAIR no one got around to writing any autocommit control logic
for libpgtcl. You are of course welcome to write some and send it in if
you need it ...

Ok, I'll try to make it. Do you know any reason why libpgtcl is not
tclstub enabled?
Maybe I 'll try to build it with stubs...

Nobody's done the work (I don't think tclstub even existed the last time
anyone was doing serious work on libpgtcl). If you think it's worth
having, and it can be done without breaking backwards compatibility with
older Tcl releases, go for it ...
