Beyond the RTFM part of your post, it's fun that people are so defensive and don't understand what I'm saying.
"(createuser) not a psql command, its a client application."
Yeah, so postgresql is the only program that creates users for itself? Createuser is a generic name.
(Some) Postgresql client appplications have no prefix. MySQL apps have.
So that if I see a file called mysqladmin I know it's from mysql. If I see a file called createuser I don't have that information. Who says it's from pgsql and not somebody else?
> And how do you know that they exist or what they do without reading the docs?
