Daniel,
From the \h command in psql:
rnd=# \h comment
Command: COMMENT
Description: define or change the comment of an object
Syntax:
COMMENT ON
{
TABLE object_name |
COLUMN table_name.column_name |
AGGREGATE agg_name (agg_type) |
CONSTRAINT constraint_name ON table_name |
DATABASE object_name |
DOMAIN object_name |
FUNCTION func_name (arg1_type, arg2_type, ...) |
INDEX object_name |
OPERATOR op (leftoperand_type, rightoperand_type) |
RULE rule_name ON table_name |
SCHEMA object_name |
SEQUENCE object_name |
TRIGGER trigger_name ON table_name |
TYPE object_name |
VIEW object_name
} IS 'text'
I believe this is what you need.
HTH.
