NAME
        droplang  -  Remove a programming language from a Postgres
        database
 
SYNOPSIS
        droplang [ connection-options... ] [ langname ] dbname
 
        droplang [ connection-options... ] { --list | -l } dbname
 
    INPUTS
        droplang accepts the following command line arguments:
 
        langname
               Specifies the name of the backend programming  lan­
               guage  to  be  removed.   droplang  will prompt for
               langname if it is  not  specified  on  the  command
               line.
 
        [-d, --dbname] dbname
               Specifies  from  which database the language should
               be removed.
 
        -l, --list
               Shows a list of already installed languages in  the
               target database (which must be specified).
 
 
        droplang also accepts the following command line arguments
        for connection 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 directory  for  the  unix  domain
               socket.
 
        -p, --port port
               Specifies  the  Internet  TCP/IP port or local Unix
               domain socket file extension on which the  postmas­
               ter is listening for connections.
 
        -U, --username username
               Username to connect as.
 
        -W, --password
               Force password prompt.
 
 
    OUTPUTS
        Most  error  messages  are  self-explanatory.  If not, run
        droplang with the --echo option and see under the  respec­
        tive SQL command for details. Check also under psql(1) for
        more possibilities.
 
DESCRIPTION
        droplang is a utility for removing an existing programming
        language  from  a  Postgres  database.  droplang currently
        accepts two languages, plsql and pltcl.
 
        Although backend  programming  languages  can  be  removed
        directly  using several SQL commands, it is recommended to
        use droplang because it performs a number of checks and is
        much  easier  to use. See DROP LANGUAGE [drop_language(l)]
        for more.
 
NOTES
        Use createlang(1) to add a language.
 
 USAGE
        To remove pltcl:
 
        $ droplang pltcl
