/*
 * pg_standby.c
 * 
 * Production-ready example of how to create a Warm Standby
 * database server using continuous archiving as a 
 * replication mechanism
 *
 * We separate the parameters for archive and nextWALfile
 * so that we can check the archive exists, even if the 
 * WAL file doesn't (yet).
 *
 * This program will be executed once in full for each file
 * requested by the warm standby server.
 *
 * It is designed to cater to a variety of needs, as well
 * providing a customizable section.
