Обсуждение: batch file

In the postgresql tutorial it is explained how to enter commands one by
one, I was wondering whether it is possible to first put a series of
commands in an ascii file and then read in that file with psql. Here are
my questions:
1. What should be the default extension of such a file
2. Which command in psql should I use to read in suc a file

best regards,
hugo
