Ah, there is no such command. The log file is just a plain text file and you 
open it and look at it however you want: Console.app, cat or more at the 
command line, pico, vim, emacs, BBEdit, TextWrangler, TextMate, TextEdit or any 
of a thousand other different ways.

You do need to know where it is of course, and you've used some package manager 
that puts pg pieces in non-standard locations, so I can't help you with that 
other than refer you to the docs, if there are any, for that install.
