The Tcl version had import/export commands.  Due to a Java restriction 
we had to remove those funtions for now.

We haven't decided if we are going to find a way to make this work by 
means of an external process, or even if we will add it to our Visual 
PSQL tool.  It may happen that it will only be available on the RHAPS 
version as we can use some EJBs in that environment.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  We hated having to remove it but it had no 
time to come up with something in time for the release.

Fortunately the COPY TO and COPY FROM SQL commands are easy to use and 
the psql command line tool has a command to help with that as well, if I 
remember correctly.

Regards,
Fernando
