       database for an user. If  it  is  not  present,  the  system-wide  file  /etc/postgresql-com‐‐
       mon/user_clusters is used instead.


FORMAT
       Comments  are  introduced  by the character #.  Comments may follow data on a line; the first
       comment character terminates the data.  Leading whitespace and blank lines are ignored.

       The first uncommented, non-blank line is used, all following lines are ignored.

       CLUSTER
              The name of a cluster to connect to. A remote cluster is specified with host:port.  If
              port is empty, it defaults to 5432.

       DATABASE
              Within  the cluster, the database to which the user will connect by default if he does
              not specify a database on the command line.  If this is *, the default  database  will
