Обсуждение: DDL Exports w/ quotes?

Whenever I use pg_dump, pgadmin2, or phpPgAdmin and I try to export the DDL and/or data from a PostgreSQL database, it always puts " (double quotes) around the table and column names.   Does anyone have any ideas why?  Do you know how to stop it from doing this??

Thanks!

pg_dump -n.  Dunno about the others.

The reason pg_dump does it is to protect names that might have become
reserved words in a later version of Postgres.
