Is there no "DESCRIBE <TABLE>;" on PGSQL? help!!!

Any idea to get a human readable list with column descriptions like
type,size,key,default,null.
It would be nice if it would look simular to the mysql variant:

mysql> describe employee;
+-----------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-----------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Id | int(11) | | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
| FirstName | char(30) | | MUL | | |
| LastName | char(30) | | | | |
| Infix | char(10) | YES | | NULL | |
| Address1 | char(30) | YES | | NULL | |
| PostCode | char(10) | YES | | NULL | |
| Town | int(11) | YES | | NULL | |
+-----------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

Cheers, Ron.
