I am using Postgre95 beta 0.02 along with PGperl5 in a Solaris 2.4 
environment.

I have created a database called 'dbtest', set up a couple fields, and 
entered 1 row of data.

Monitor output follows:

----------------------
bash$ monitor dbtest
Welcome to the POSTGRES95 terminal monitor

Go 
* select * from person;

Query sent to backend is "select * from person;"
-----------------------------
| name        | age         |
-----------------------------
| dave        | 10          |
-----------------------------

---------------------

I have a script written in perl 5 using PGpm that doesn't return any 
value, except 'PGblank'. The code follows:

---------------------

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Pg;
$db="dbtest";
PQsetdb($db);
$query="select * from person";
$result=PQexec($query);
print "$result\n";

And the results:

bash$ ./dbtest2
Pblank

-----------------

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, as it's been a long couple of 
days. :)
