I have written a shell script to export data:

Currently, I am using spaces as field separator but what I really
want is tabs.
How can I specify a TAB character with the -F option?
Sorry for having gone off-topic. I was just hoping something like \t
could be passed, too.
Try:
psql -A -t -U $DBUSER -d $DB -c "$QUERY" -F $'\t'
see:
man bash
