I just installed PostgreSQL and started reading the tutorial @
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/tutorial-createdb.html and was
snowed at square one. To create a database, I'm supposed to type the
following command:

$ createdb mydb

But it doesn't say where I'm supposed to type it. When I click on the
PostgreSQL icon in my taskbar, a program called pgAdminIII opens up. I've
clicked File, Edit, Plugins, etc., but I don't see any clues about where
I'm supposed to type commands.
