That was a good idea. At least I could see the name of the DB:
datname | datdba | encoding | datistemplate | datallowconn |
datconnlimit | datlastsysoid | datvacuumxid | datfrozenxid |
dattablespace | datconfig | datacl
---------------+--------+----------+---------------+--------------

postgres | 10 | 0 | f | t

barry | 16387 | 0 | f | t
| -1 | 10791 | 575 | 575

foodmart
| 16384 | 0 | f | t |

You'll notice the database foodmart has a carriage return or new
line. I still can't figure out how to get rid of it though.
The other weird thing is that the database name does not appear
during the psql query. It only appears when I pipe it out.
