A simple two-line shell script to apply any command to a list of tables:

for i in `psql mydatabase -c '\dt' -P tuples_only | cut -f2 -d ' '`
do psql mydatabase -c "grant all on $i to public"; done

These mailing list footers really suck. Please consider removing them.
They reflect poorly on the general level of the pgsql-* lists. Instead
do send a one-time "welcome" message containing all your "tips" when
people subscribe to a list.

Probably a lost cause but the subject mangling [GENERAL], [HACKERS] etc.
(especially that one! a "hacker" should know how to filter his mail)
really sucks too. 

Educate, don't stoop. Even Outlook Express has great filtering
capabilities which don't require any subject mangling.
