       createlang [ connection-options... ] { --list | -l } dbname

   INPUTS
       createlang accepts the following command line arguments:

       langname
	      Specifies	 the  name  of	the backend programming language to be
	      defined.	createlang will prompt for langname if it is not spec‐
	      ified on the command line.

       -d, --dbname dbname
	      Specifies which database the language should be added.

       -l, --list
	      Shows  a list of already installed languages in the target data‐
	      base (which must be specified).

       createlang also accepts the following command line arguments  for  con‐
       nection parameters:

       -h, --host host
	      Specifies the hostname of the machine on which the postmaster is
	      running. If host begins with a slash, it is used as  the	direc‐
	      tory for the unix domain socket.

       -p, --port port
	      Specifies	 the  Internet TCP/IP port or local Unix domain socket
	      file extension on which the postmaster is listening for  connec‐
	      tions.

       -U, --username username
	      Username to connect as.

       -W, --password
	      Force password prompt.

   OUTPUTS
       Most  error  messages are self-explanatory. If not, run createlang with
       the --echo option and see under the respective SQL command for details.
       Check also under psql(1) for more possibilities.

DESCRIPTION
       createlang  is  a  utility  for	adding a new programming language to a
       Postgres database.  createlang  currently  accepts  several  languages,
       plpgsql, pltcl, pltclu, and  plperl.

       Although backend programming languages can be added directly using sev‐
       eral SQL commands, it is recommended to use createlang because it  per‐
       forms a number of checks and is much easier to use. See CREATE LANGUAGE
       [create_language(l)] for more.

NOTES
       Use droplang(1) to remove a language.

USAGE
       To install pltcl into the database template1:

       $ createlang pltcl template1
