Description
pg_conftool allows showing and setting parameters in PostgreSQL configuration files.
If versioncluster is omitted, it defaults to the default cluster (see user_clusters(5) and
postgresqlrc(5)). If configfile is omitted, it defaults to postgresql.conf. configfile can also be a
path, in which case versioncluster is ignored.
