The handy "-E" flag to psql helps:
roberto@brasileiro:~$ psql -E -l
********* QUERY **********
SELECT d.datname as "Name",
u.usename as "Owner",
pg_encoding_to_char(d.encoding) as "Encoding"
FROM pg_database d LEFT JOIN pg_user u ON d.datdba = u.usesysid
ORDER BY 1;
**************************
List of databases
Name | Owner | Encoding
