in psql, you use \l smarlowe=> \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding -----------+----------+----------- blog | smarlowe | SQL_ASCII postgres | postgres | SQL_ASCII smarlowe | smarlowe | SQL_ASCII template0 | postgres | SQL_ASCII template1 | postgres | SQL_ASCII (5 rows) If you want to execute a command to see it from SQL (i.e. an application etc...) you can find the queries psql uses by starting it with the -E switch, like so: [EMAIL PROTECTED] smarlowe]$ psql -E Welcome to psql 7.4.5, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal. Type: \copyright for distribution terms \h for help with SQL commands \? for help on internal slash commands \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query \q to quit smarlowe=> \l ********* QUERY ********** SELECT d.datname as "Name", u.usename as "Owner", pg_catalog.pg_encoding_to_char(d.encoding) as "Encoding" FROM pg_catalog.pg_database d LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_user u ON d.datdba = u.usesysid ORDER BY 1; ************************** List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding -----------+----------+----------- blog | smarlowe | SQL_ASCII postgres | postgres | SQL_ASCII smarlowe | smarlowe | SQL_ASCII template0 | postgres | SQL_ASCII template1 | postgres | SQL_ASCII (5 rows) Hope that helps. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
