Identify an inherited table - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Hi ...

When using a database with inherited tables it somtimes would be nice if
the row you are looking at is a base, a child or even a grandchild type.
Like this :

    SELECT id, type() FROM base;

id  | unknown
----------
1   | base
2   | child

Or something like this.

Is this possible or does this include alot funny SQL to gain ?
