It's not terribly well documented, but psql's \df gives some info: regression=# \df+ age Schema | Name | Result data type | Argument data types | Type | Volatility | Parallel | Owner | Security | Access privileges | Language | Source code | Description ... pg_catalog | age | integer | xid | func | stable | restricted | postgres | invoker | | internal | xid_age | age of a transaction ID, in transactions before current transaction The only reference I could find in the SGML docs is in the maintenance chapter. regards, tom lane
