Its typical use case are XML and JSON data types. Right? > There are more goals: 1. user friendly import of text or binary data - import text data (with psql) from file is possible - but you have to load a content to psql variable. For binary data you should to use workaround based on LO and transformation from LO to bytea. 2. user friendly export text or binary data - now, the binary data can be exported only via transformation to LO. The XML has very interesting features when is passing from/to client binary.

The question was: How I can export/import binary data simply from psql console?
