I'm trying to pull a listing of views with the columns and column aliases.
However, I must be blind, and can't find what system view has the alias for
the columns of the view. Would someone please enlighten me.
Thanks,
Chris

See pg_catalog.pg_views.
Thanks, but this does not meet my needs.
Is there not a way to query the pg_ catalog views and get a listing of views
with columns (by alias name)?
i.e.
create view asdf as
select xyz as test1 from bogus_table;
I need a query that says:
view|column|alias
asdf|xyz|test1
Thanks,
Chris

The column names (what you call alias names) are in pg_attribute, the views
are in pg_class.
