Does psql -f quit insertion after an error in a statement has been detected?

Hi,

I'm using a psql -f command to reload the data from a dump file.  I noticed that some tables are not populated with any
rows(I mean 0 rows), yet, if I manually insert a row (actually just copy an INSERT statement from that input file) in
theinteractive terminal, that row was added with no problem.  So my question "does psql -f quits inserting rows for a
tablewhen it detects there is an error in a statement?".  The impression that I got is that even though other rows
mightnot have any errors, but psql -f seems just quits after it detects an error in a row. 

Am I missing something here?
Thanks
Mary
