INSERT or UPDATE should do the trick, especially when combined with 
plpgsql, exceptions and basic error handling. You should be able to find 
the relevant material here:
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/plpgsql-control-structures.html
and here:

Please pardon the total nubie question. 

There is a nice syntax for functions,  "CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION xyz ..."

What is the best syntax to create or replace a row in a table?

Specifically: Update row in table t if row exists in table t else insert row in table t with source rows from temporary table s of same type as t.
