I know the -T command, but I'm trying to regex the "pattern" in -T in order to exclude all tables named program_1 onwards.
I believe commonly you'd use -T "program_!0", but the ! negation keyword is not defined.
Thanks,
Eudald

-T pattern
--exclude-table=pattern
Do not dump any tables matching pattern. The pattern is interpreted
according to the same rules as for -t. -T can be given more than once to
exclude tables matching any of several patterns.
When both -t and -T are given, the behavior is to dump just the
tables that match at least one -t switch but no -T switches. If -T
appears without -t, then tables matching -T are excluded from what is
otherwise a normal dump.
For what patterns you can use see:
