INFORMATION_SCHEMA,but still couldn't make sense out of these tables in the given context. This is to make a user

SQL commands like...
CREATE USER freddy WITH PASSWORD 'something';
CREATe DATABASE freddb OWNER freddy;
issued same as any other SQL queries, via libpq etc.
note, the INFORMATION_SCHEMA is read only as its all implemented as
