-The file <filename>pg_service.conf</filename> in the <literal>sysconf</>
-directory (typically <filename>/usr/local/pgsql/etc</>) can assocate a 
-group of libpq connection parameters with a single service name that
-can be specified in the libpq connection.
-.   a user's home directory or the
-file referenced by <envar>PGPASSFILE</envar> can contain passwords to
-be used if the connection requires a password (and no password has been
-specified  otherwise). On Microsoft Windows the file is named
-<filename>%APPDATA%\postgresql\pgpass.conf</> (where
-<filename>%APPDATA%</> refers to the Application Data subdirectory in
-the user's profile).

-This file should contain lines of the following format:

-<replaceable>hostname</replaceable>:<replaceable>port</replaceable>:<replaceable>database</replaceable>:<replaceable>username</replaceable>:<replaceable>password</replaceable>
-</synopsis>
-Each of the first four fields may be a literal value, or <literal>*</literal>,
-which matches anything.  The password field from the first line that matches the
-current connection parameters will be used.  (Therefore, put more-specific
-entries first when you are using wildcards.)
-If an entry needs to contain <literal>:</literal> or
-<literal>\</literal>, escape this character with <literal>\</literal>.
-A hostname of <literal>localhost</> matches both <literal>host</> (TCP)
-and <literal>local</> (Unix domain socket) connections coming from the
-local machine.

-The permissions on <filename>.pgpass</filename> must disallow any

-If the permissions are less strict than this, the file will be ignored.
-(The file permissions are not currently checked on Microsoft Windows,
