FWIW, I have written a patch so it does work in psql for 7.3. If you have
a temporary table "foo" then '\d foo' will show the temporary table:
to see the non-temporary table you will have to specify the schema
as well with '\d schema.foo'. I'm still waiting on the current_schema()
function to be finished, but the patch is mostly done. I also wrote
an unfinished patch for 7.2 to display temp tables: if anyone has a
burning need to see temp tables in 7.2 let me know and I'll dust it
off and finish it.
