Just put it on the command line after psql:
psql example.sql
psql will take the file and run each line to the server.
If the server is not on your computer, you will need to specify the hostname to the computer and a username to log into
theserver with:
psql -h server.postgres.com -U dba example.sql
To send multiple files, just list them all:
psql example1.sql example2.sql example3.sql
or
psql example*
Run psql --help for more options.

Subject: [NOVICE] Executing sql script
I want to execute the sql stored in a directory on my system.
How do I submit this file, in batch, to pgsql to be executed?

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
