I am using PostgreSQL 9.1 and have boon looking for psql commands to list all
tables in the current database as well as how to "describe" a given table.
I have come across some info on the web (older mostly) that lists commands
like \d, \dt, or \d+ <tablename> but I get results like "no relations found"
or "column reltriggers does not exist".  Not sure what is going on.

Can someone enlighten me on the right commands to use?

Thanks - Peter
