Per offline comments my thoughts were something like:

Informational: S = show system objects + = Additional detail
Display:
\l[+] all databases
\d[S+] tables, views, and sequences
\d[S+] NAME describe table, view, sequence, or index
\da[S] [PATTERN] aggregate functions
\db[+] [PATTERN] tablespaces
\dc[S] [PATTERN] conversions
\dC [PATTERN] casts
\dd [PATTERN] show comment for object
\dd[S] [PATTERN] comments on objects

But I am not putting up any sandbags :)
