Hi Enrico,
The following command will get you a text file of your result-set:
# echo "SELECT customer_id, first_name, sur_name FROM
users;"|/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U [username] -d [database] > myfile.txt
# cat myfile.txt
customer_id | first_name | sur_name
-------------+------------+----------

Or you can dump a specific table:
# /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump --table=[tablename] [database]
Regards,
Andy.
