Title: PostgreSQL or pl/psSQL equivalent to MS SQL Server's xp_cmdshell?

Does anyone know of the PostgreSQL or pl/psSQL equivalent to MS SQL Server's xp_cmdshell?   This is the command that allows you issue command-line statements from within SQL, e.g., you would do xp_cmdshell 'dir c:\' if you wanted to see the contents of the c: drive.
