From your description it sounds like you are trying connect via psql
and then use "createdb". But createdb is a command line program you
need to run at the command prompt (not the psql prompt). Apologies if
you know all this and I have just misunderstood your description of the
problem.
Post the error output from createdb if you still can't get it to work.
