Hello Adrian

when I run \dTS+ I get the same result as \dT+


So you want to get information from a user created type.
So you have two options:
1) Add a comment to the type:
COMMENT ON TYPE test is 'create type test AS (a int , b int)';

test=> \dT
                   List of data types
 Schema |  Name   |             Description
--------+---------+-------------------------------------
 public | ghstore |
 public | hstore  |
 public | test    | create type test AS (a int , b int)

2) Get the information from the pg_type system catalog.

test=> SELECT * from pg_type where typname='test';

I am not showing the output because it does not display well.


For more information on what is being returned take a look at:
