PostgreSQL: Show tables in PostgreSQL

Question

What\'s the equivalent to show tables (from MySQL) in PostgreSQL?

Answer 1

The most straightforward way to list all tables at command line is, for my taste :

psql -a -U  -p  -h  -c "\dt"

For a given database just add the database name :

psql -a -U  -p  -h  -c "\dt" 

It works on both Linux and Windows.
