Jim C. Nasby asked:

Nope. I was not exaggerating the difficulty of their utilities earlier.
Oracle's export program writes to a binary format that is readable
only by Oracle's import program. And don't get me started on "sqlplus",
their command-line equivalent to psql. Quite possibly the worst
command-line database interface ever. :)
On the plus side, there are third-party tools that can do a CSV or other
type of dump from an Oracle database.
