It is fairly simple. The options you have at connect time are documented
here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/app-psql.html

All other commands/statements must be executed after connect, specified
with the -c option or included in a file with -f .
Note the exceptions that can be specified per user as Scott mentioned.
