Expanded display is on.

PostgreSQL 7.2 devel Documentation

psql
Name
psql -- PostgreSQL interactive terminal
Synopsis
psql [option...] [dbname [username]]

Description
psql is a terminal-based front-end to PostgreSQL. It enables you to type in queries interactively, issue them to PostgreSQL, and see the query results. Alternatively, input can be from a file. In addition, it provides a number of meta-commands and various shell-like features to facilitate writing scripts and automating a wide variety of tasks.

Options
-c command
--command command

Specifies that psql is to execute one command string, command, and then exit. This is useful in shell scripts.

command must be either a command string that is completely parsable by the server (i.e., it contains no psql specific features), or it is a single backslash command. Thus you cannot mix SQL and psql meta-commands. To achieve that, you could pipe the string into psql, like this: echo "\x \\ select * from foo;" | psql.

If "autocommit" is on, multiple queries in a single string are processed in a single transaction.
