You should at least make clear that this is an error message due to an
unsupported command. The output above looks broken. Something like
this should be okay, I think:
ERROR: unrecognized configuration parameter "tables"
NOTICE: use \d to list tables, or \? for general help with psql commands
ERROR: unrecognized configuration parameter "databases"
NOTICE: use \l to list databases, or \? for general help with psql commands
(I hope that this is less controversial, too.)
