List pgsql-novice
I am having trouble with the catalog commands. More precisely, I cannot
seem to find a detailed list of them. I was able to list the databases in
a cluster with:

select * from pg_database

I just noticed that the "DESC" directive does not work. How does one list
the makeup of a table? What command would one use to list the tables that
exist within a database?
