>      Before you can initiate a connection, you must usually specify
      options that tell the database driver what to connect to. This
      driver supports the standard options of <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>host</CODE
>,
      <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>username</CODE
>, <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>password</CODE
>,
      <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>dbname</CODE
>, <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>timeout</CODE
>, and
      <CODE
CLASS="VARNAME"
>port</CODE
>, as well as PostgreSQL-specific
      options. You only need to set options that are specific to your
      application -- sensible defaults will be used for all
      unspecified options.
