Thank you for the prompt and clear answer. I work with a Mac (OS 10.4.3) and I used the PostgresApp to install it. I am a very primitive user of Postgres and think of it as Microsoft Access on Steroids. I access it via Aqua Data, Studio, but I don't think that makes any difference
Access is an application design tool with a built-in engine that's good for storing "small" amounts of data.
Postgresql is a database management system suitable for storing and replicating billions and billions and billions of large amounts of data, and analyzing it in a myriad of ways. It requires "administration from the command line", as you're discovering.
