skytf(>     a integer DEFAULT 2,
skytf(>     b varchar(64)  DEFAULT 'I am default',
skytf(>     c varchar(64)  DEFAULT 'I am also default'
skytf(> );
CREATE TABLE

--show table information

skytf=> \d mytable
                              Table "skytf.mytable"
 Column |         Type          |                   Modifiers                    
--------+-----------------------+------------------------------------------------
 a      | integer               | default 2
 b      | character varying(64) | default 'I am default'::character varying
 c      | character varying(64) | default 'I am also default'::character varying
