I've honestly skimmed the manual and it's very easy to use and good
but it covers so many aspects and sometimes I need a specific answer
for my situation.

Are you saying I dumped the database in a text formal or I'm restoring
the database infile in plain text? I'll read that 2nd URL link you
posted. What are the issues with using pg_dump to dump and then 'psql
some_db < pg_dump.sql'? I show the manual explains how to perform this
action and what the system is doing but doesn't explain why this is an
issue or why you recommended to use pg_restore instead?
