I've looked through the archive on the mailing list and various discussions there seem to indicate that with postgreSQL as of 8.1.4 there is no command to switch the current WAL file to archive it after a backup has completed. Is this true?

Is there any catalog view that shows you the current WAL file? - I couldn't see this mentioned when I looked through the documentation.
