from psql
I have tried several ways including creating a function to read a file
without any success but basically I want to do something like the
following from a bash shell

psql <connection information> -c "insert into x (ID, load_date, image)
values ($PID,clock_timestamp()::timestamp(0), copy from '/tmp/$FN' with
binary);"

Any help would be greatly appreciated

use a proper programming language that can read files and insert BYTEA data. shell + psql just won't cut it. I'd suggest perl or python or java or whatever.
