+Multiple Connections
+====================
+Idiorm now works with multiple conections. Most of the static functions
+work with an optional connection name as an extra parameter. For the
+``ORM::configure`` method, this means that when passing connection
+strings for a new connection, the second parameter, which is typically
+omitted, should be ``null``. In all cases, if a connection name is not
+provided, it defaults to ``ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION``.
+
+When chaining, once ``for_table()`` has been used in the chain, remaining
+calls in the chain use the correct connection.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+    // Default connection
+    ORM::configure('sqlite:./example.db');
+
+    // A named connection, where 'remote' is an arbitrary key name
+    ORM::configure('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=my_database', null, 'remote');
+    ORM::configure('username', 'database_user', 'remote');
+    ORM::configure('password', 'top_secret', 'remote');
+    
+    // Using default connection
+    $person = ORM::for_table('person')->find_one(5);
+    
+    // Using default connection, explicitly
+    $person = ORM::for_table('person', ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION)->find_one(5);
+    
+    // Using named connection
+    $person = ORM::for_table('different_person', 'remote')->find_one(5);
+    
+    
+
+Supported Methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+In each of these cases, the ``$connection_name`` parameter is optional, and is
+an arbitrary key identifying the named connection.
+
+* ``ORM::configure($key, $value, $connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::for_table($table_name, $connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::set_db($pdo, $connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::get_db($connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::raw_execute($query, $parameters, $connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::get_last_query($connection_name)``
+* ``ORM::get_query_log($connection_name)``
+
+Of these methods, only ``ORM::get_last_query($connection_name)`` does *not*
+fallback to the default connection when no connection name is passed.
+Instead, passing no connection name (or ``null``) returns the most recent
+query on *any* connection.
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+    // Using default connection, explicitly
+    $person = ORM::for_table('person')->find_one(5);
+    
+    // Using named connection
+    $person = ORM::for_table('different_person', 'remote')->find_one(5);
+
+    // Last query on *any* connection
+    ORM::get_last_query(); // returns query on 'different_person' using 'remote'
+    
+    // returns query on 'person' using default by passing in the connection name
+    ORM::get_last_query(ORM::DEFAULT_CONNECTION);
+
+Notes
+~~~~~
+* **There is no support for joins across connections**
+* Multiple connections do not share configuration settings. This means if
+  one connection has logging set to ``true`` and the other does not, only
+  queries from the logged connection will be available via
+  ``ORM::get_last_query()`` and ``ORM::get_query_log()``.
+* A new method has been added, ``ORM::get_connection_names()``, which returns
+  an array of connection names.
+* Caching *should* work with multiple connections (remember to turn caching
+  on for each connection), but the unit tests are not robust. Please report
+  any errors.
