In psql, you can do:

regression=# select * from tenk1 limit 2;
unique1 | unique2 | two | four | ten | twenty | hundred | thousand | twothousand | fivethous | tenthous | odd | even | stringu1 | stringu2 | string4
---------+---------+-----+------+-----+--------+---------+----------+-------------+-----------+----------+-----+------+----------+----------+---------
8800 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 800 | 800 | 3800 | 8800 | 0 | 1 | MAAAAA | AAAAAA | AAAAxx
1891 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 11 | 91 | 891 | 1891 | 1891 | 1891 | 182 | 183 | TUAAAA | BAAAAA | HHHHxx
(2 rows)

regression=# \a
Output format is unaligned.
regression=# \f ,
Field separator is ','.
regression=# \t
Showing only tuples.
regression=# select * from tenk1 limit 2;
8800,0,0,0,0,0,0,800,800,3800,8800,0,1,MAAAAA,AAAAAA,AAAAxx
1891,1,1,3,1,11,91,891,1891,1891,1891,182,183,TUAAAA,BAAAAA,HHHHxx
regression=#

Dunno if that's quite what you wanted ... but a little digging in the
psql reference page seems warranted ...
