In that case you ignore psql's facilities and instead read about
libpgtcl's facilities for manipulating large objects, for example
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.2/postgres/pgtcl-pgloimport.html
and surrounding pages.

It looks like those docs could use some work :-( --- I've never looked
at them closely before, and they seem to contain some lies. For
example, pg_lo_import should return the OID of the created object,
and does according to the code ... but the man page doesn't say anything
about it.
