Not familiar with that one. I don't have a framework (well, I do, but I
wrote it), but I use PDO (PHP Data Objects) as the interface.

It's been my experience that just leaving the name out and not quoting
in the SQL is the most straightforward way to go. I always use lowercase
(in table definition and in the code) which seems to work well. Also,
with schemas, the "search path" defaults to the user name, then public.
The way I have coded my applications is to have a service user who owns
the schema, and that's the user that the application uses. If you have a
similar setup, that may work - if not, public is your best option. My
advice would be to get it working with no punctuation in the SQL (i.e.,
"select nick from usarios"), and set the rest of the tables up that way.
