I assume this is an appropiate list for this question.  I am sure that pg_general would have
worked also.  With-out knowing the postgresql pg_* schema very well I can be difficult to
determine queries that will give your this sort of information.  In my case I like to cheat.

1) I turn on statement logging.
2) I issue a commands like \d from psql interface
3) Then, I look at the pg_logs to see what sql statement was actually created from "\d"

In your case I would first determine which psql function will give you the information you want
and this use it to give you the query you need.

I hope this helps.
