I'm not following your question. The pre-data and

psql, but it is the restore of the directory that is hanging.

In this case, does the "General options" -f make sense?
restoring to a file?
If the top post it to my question about -f making sense, I was
responding to Tom's explanation. He's correct of course. I'm just
wondering if pg-restore --help should include -f from the general
options. I probable should have posed this to Joshua's reply.
