## 12.10. psql Support

Information about text search configuration objects can be obtained in psql using a set of commands:

    \dF{d,p,t}[+] [PATTERN]

An optional `+` produces more details.

The optional parameter `PATTERN` can be the name of a text search object, optionally schema-qualified. If `PATTERN` is omitted then information about all visible objects will be displayed. `PATTERN` can be a regular expression and can provide separate patterns for the schema and object names. The following examples illustrate this:

    => \dF *fulltext*
           List of text search configurations
     Schema |  Name        | Description
    --------+--------------+-------------
     public | fulltext_cfg |

    => \dF *.fulltext*
           List of text search configurations
     Schema   |  Name        | Description
    ----------+----------------------------
     fulltext | fulltext_cfg |
     public   | fulltext_cfg |

The available commands are:
