User privilege information.

Hello,

How do I find out the privileges of a particular user?
(names and ids of the objects and their permissions the user has access to)
If there a single table/view that can give this information - please point
me to it.
Otherwise - give the names of the tables/views that contain this
information.

Cheers
sqlcatz

See the has_<object>_privilege functions and the system catalogs:
