 * tuplesort.h
 *	  Generalized tuple sorting routines.
 *
 * This module handles sorting of heap tuples, index tuples, or single
 * Datums (and could easily support other kinds of sortable objects,
 * if necessary).  It works efficiently for both small and large amounts
 * of data.  Small amounts are sorted in-memory using qsort().	Large
 * amounts are sorted using temporary files and a standard external sort
 * algorithm.
