I've modified Informix SQL-tools to the Postgres database system.

No, PD Postgres doesn't have sql-interface, but I converted queries
into postquel-form.

With these tools you can link your grass layers with attribute data
stored in Postgres.

We have Grass 4.1, Postgres 4.1 and sunOS 4.1.1, so these are the tools
I've worked.

These tools are in alpha stage, so there must be some bugs
also. But we don't have large datasets stored in Postgres yet, so I
will need some test users. 

If you are interested in testing these tools, send a mail to me and
I will send the uuencoded tar-file to you.
