- The behavior of the switch is not entirely upward
- compatible with pre-8.2
PostgreSQL
- versions. Formerly, writing -t tab would dump all
- tables named tab, but now it just dumps whichever one
- is visible in your default search path. To get the old behavior
- you can write -t '*.tab'. Also, you must write something
- like -t sch.tab to select a table in a particular schema,
- rather than the old locution of -n sch -t tab.
