The correct incantation is
	--schema=contact --table=contact
You can use the qualified-name syntax in pg_dump's --table switch,
but nobody's gotten around to making pg_restore similarly bright.

Well, in that form it's not supposed to do anything except emit SQL
into result.txt --- you probably want to use the -d switch, or else
pipe the SQL into psql.
