This is the example found in the documentation to dump a database.

To dump a database:

$ pg_dump mydb > db.out"

The following - $ pg_dump aurel > aurel.out - gives me
"ERROR:  syntax error at or near "$" at character 1"

What am I missing???

The "$" is part of the OS prompt. Windows would look something like "c:\pg_dump mydb > db.out". Omit the "$" and it should be fine.
