Thanks, I feel a little sheepish at not trying it with quotes around the
query, but the manuals don't mention that you have to enclose the query in
quotes when you use the -c option.

Hi,
It works for me, for example, this way:
athens% psql -d template1 -c "select datname from pg_database"
datname
---
template1
postgres
biology
test
(4 rows)
Hope this helps,
-Rita

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the syntax of
running queries from a unix script.
psql -c select 'I am a dummy' -d dbname - never seems to
work. I've tried variations on the command line, but to no
success.
Does the -c option work?
Cheers,
Christopher Currie
