Function: sql-informix

Run dbaccess by Informix as an inferior process.

If buffer `*SQL*' exists but no process is running, make a new process.
If buffer exists and a process is running, just switch to buffer
`*SQL*'.

Interpreter used comes from variable `sql-informix-program'. Login uses
the variable `sql-database' as default, if set.

The buffer is put in SQL interactive mode, giving commands for sending
input. See `sql-interactive-mode'.

To set the buffer name directly, use C-u
before M-x sql-informix. Once session has started,
M-x sql-rename-buffer can be called separately to rename the
buffer.

To specify a coding system for converting non-ASCII characters
in the input and output to the process, use C-x RET c
before M-x sql-informix. You can also specify this with C-x RET p
in the SQL buffer, after you start the process.
The default comes from `process-coding-system-alist' and
`default-process-coding-system'. (Type C-h m in the SQL buffer for a list of commands.) (fn &optional BUFFER)
