Hi,
I'm fairly new here, and new to PostgreSQL, I recently run into a
problem. As you all know that you can do "\d table_name" to describe a
table in psql. However, I need to get the same result via regular SQL
query which can be sent to server via many client interface. I know
these info must be stored somewhere in the system tables but seem to
have failed to put together the whole picture, can anyone help? any
direction would be greatly appreciated.
