In psql, simply use the "begin" command to begin a transaction. Now do
your "insert" commands. Finish up with a "commit" command. I think this is
the same in all the various interface languages. At least I've seen things
like (in python>:
import pg;
db=pg.DB(....)
db.query('BEGIN')
... more db.query('INSERT ...') commands
db.query('COMMIT')
