OK, good, that works. However, now I have the problem I suspected I would: I get more than just the bytes that were in my field. 27 bytes more, to be exact. I already did -t for tuples-only and I'm only doing one row and column so there's no separators there. Since it's a .gz file and 'file' no longer recognizes it, I deduce that the magic cookie isn't at the beginning of the file anymore and some of the 27 bytes must be at the beginning of the file instead. Is this a PG-specific binary format with a wrapper around my data or just my data only?
