Yes. PostgreSQL online docs have a similar feature, although their
implementation isn't perhaps as nice as RWH's (I like RWH's inline
comments feature). See e.g.
  http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/tutorial-createdb.html
  http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/functions-string.html
 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/indexes-multicolumn.html
