Comment Re:Cool! PostgreSQL always runs on my iBook (Score 1) 315

Yeah, but there still aren't any ShutdownItems on Mac OS X to complement the StartUpItems, so it looks like I have to write an AppleScript app so my client can shut down PostgresSQL safely. And they have to remember to run it every time they want to switch off their iMac.

BAD Apple! No biscuit!

(Yes this is a plea for help in disguise. If you have solved the problem of running rc.d-ish scripts at shutdown time on Mac OS X 10.2 please leave details.)

PS On the plus side, PostgreSQL 7.3 builds with no errors on Mac OS X, unlike 7.2. This was important enough to me that I used the beta in my (development) code.

Congrats to all involved in this release anyhow.

Yours,
A grateful PostgreSQL User && a pissed off Apple Customer
