The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/tutorial-createdb.html Description:
I am at this point in the documentation and I'm told to type a command. "1.3. Creating a Database The first test to see whether you can access the database server is to try to create a database ... To create a new database, in this example named mydb, you use the following command: $ createdb mydb" I know this may sound silly, but "where" am I supposed to type this command? I'm smart enough to realize that I need a prompt, but in what app or environment will I find the expected prompt? I started "psql" and get this prompt: "Server [localhost]:_" I don't get a $ prompt, and when I type the createdb command I get no error, but pgAdmin4 shows no 'mydb' database either. I think it would be very helpful if the documentation included explicit steps and screen captures. Thank you very much, Chuck Becker
