PostgreSQL 7.2.1 Documentation
Chapter 1. libpq - C Library
1.3. Command Execution Functions
1.3.3. Escaping binary strings for inclusion in SQL queries

I found the line
"The result string length does not include the terminating zero byte of the result."
is not right.
The result string length does indeed include the terminating zero byte.
