This should do it. :)

psql -At your_db <<EOT > pg_tables
SELECT quote_ident(table_schema) || '.' || quote_ident(table_name)
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE
    table_schema NOT IN (
        'information_schema',
        'pg_catalog'
    )
AND
    table_type = 'BASE TABLE';
EOT

Cheers,
David.
