osx - psql -h localhost won't connect on Mac OS X -


per postgresapp.com

psql postgresql command-line interface database. mac os 10.7 ships older version of postgresql, can started following command:

$ psql -h localhost

so run psql -h localhost , get

dans-macbook-pro:~ djechlin$ psql -h localhost psql: not connect server: connection refused     server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) , accepting     tcp/ip connections on port 5432? 

as far can tell psql client side, , postgresapp.com's documentation talking smack. still have no idea how start postgres server locally , haven't been able find documentation on that.

version:

dans-macbook-pro:~ djechlin$ psql --version psql (postgresql) 9.1.5 contains support command-line editing 

i'm on mac 10.8.4.

this admittedly more confusing should have been, but...
