I'm seeing \dt used for "show tables", \l used for "show databases". Why not standart SQL syntax words? Why specified PostgreSQL commands? I can't figure out that.
The only thing the SQL standard defines to gain access to information about tables, schemas and catalogs (=databases) is the information_schema views. There is no "show database" or "show tables" statement in the SQL standard. Btw: \dt is a command specific to the psql client - it's not a general "SQL command" in Postgres
