Thanks much; it might have been a while before I tried that nested
quoting technique.  I think it's worth documenting.  Would you like me
to try to put a doc patch together, or would it be better for someone
else to do so?

You do it like this:

	$ pg_dump - s - t '"DbTranLogRecord"' dtr

A bit ugly but the conflict between shell and SQL quoting rules
sometimes forces us into compromises :- (

Perhaps it's worth having an example for this in the pg_dump man page?
