According to
http://www.commandprompt.com/ppbook/index.lxp?lxpwrap=x17549%2ehtm:
"\dd Displays all descriptions for all database objects."

When I do this, I get, "ERROR: No such attribute a.oid". Is this a
feature? The documentation incorrect? Changed since it was written?

Also, I noticed that none of the system tables appear to have any
comments on them. Is that by design, lack of value on doing so, or
something else I don't understand?

I'm using the latest (as of several minutes ago) from CVS.

Greg
