+    <function>has_table_privilege</> determines whether a user
+    can access a table in a particular way.  The user can be
+    specified by name or by usesysid, or if the argument is omitted
+    <function>current_user</> is assumed.  The table can be specified
+    by name or by OID.  (Thus, there are actually six variants of
+    <function>has_table_privilege</>, which can be distinguished by
+    the number and types of their arguments.)  The desired access type
+    is specified by a text string, which must evaluate to one of the
+    values <literal>SELECT</>, <literal>INSERT</>, <literal>UPDATE</>,
+    <literal>DELETE</>, <literal>RULE</>, <literal>REFERENCES</>, or
+    <literal>TRIGGER</>.  (Case of the string is not significant, however.)
