In psql you could use "\d tablename". To see the queries that psql
makes, execute "\set ECHO_HIDDEN" and then "\d tablename". Here's
the documentation for the system catalogs that psql queries:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/catalogs.html
You could also query the Information Schema; table_constraints
joined with key_column_usage or constraint_column_usage should
yield a table's primary key columns.
