What is the query for retrieving a tables and a views definition from the system
tables (in 7.4).

I am trying to find my way in the system tables and I am finding very confusing,
especially way in the way the tables are linked.

If you start psql with the -E switch or use "\set ECHO_HIDDEN = 'on'"
then the \d command print the queries used to generate the output. This
should give you a good start. Alternativly, use the information_schema.

Have a nice day,
