I find a slight variation on this most userful (this is for bash: season
redirects for your flavor of shell):

psql -e <db-name> <codefile.sql 2>&1 | less

then search in less for the string ERROR

Or, if you want to do code fragments, tale a look at the \i command in
psql. (hit \? in psql to get a list of all the slash commands)
