 ## Opening a connection to a database
 ## ----------------------------------
 ##
-## .. code-block:: Nim
-##     import std/db_mysql
-##     let db = open("localhost", "user", "password", "dbname")
-##     db.close()

 ## Creating a table
 ## ----------------
 ##
-## .. code-block:: Nim
-##      db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS myTable")
-##      db.exec(sql("""CREATE TABLE myTable (
-##                       id integer,
