If you want to find out more about the syntax of a command you can use \h as
shown below:

myodbc=# \h create table
Command: CREATE TABLE
Description: Creates a new table
Syntax:
CREATE [ TEMPORARY | TEMP ] TABLE table_name (
{ column_name type [ column_constraint [ ... ] ]
| table_constraint } [, ... ]
) [ INHERITS ( parent_table [, ... ] ) ]

Temporary tables are only visible for the user who created the table - you need
not worry that something evil happens.
A temporary table is killed as soon as the session is closed.
