_Where_ do you want that default format? Are you asking about a field? psql output? The O/S?
What you're asking might be as simple as "datestyle," if you're just talking the output mask:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/runtime-config-client.html
DateStyle ( string )
Sets the display format for date and time values, as well as the rules for interpreting ambiguous date input values.
Forhistorical reasons, this variable contains two independent components: the output format specification ( ISO ,
Postgres, SQL , or German ) and the input/output specification for year/month/day ordering ( DMY , MDY , or YMD ).
Thesecan be set separately or together. The keywords Euro and European are synonyms for DMY ; the keywords US , NonEuro
,and NonEuropean are synonyms for MDY . See Section 8.5 for more information. The built-in default is ISO, MDY , but
initdbwill initialize the configuration file with a setting that corresponds to the behavior of the chosen lc_time
locale.
