Restore 8.1.4 backup in 8.2.5

Hi.

pgAdminIII uses pg_restore by restoration. Then, pg_restore does not recognize a PlainText
format.
Please use psql from a command line...

I have a backup file from Postgresql 8.1.4. When I try to use 8.2.5 pg_restore the restore
doesn't recognize the archive format. The archive file was made with the command below. Is
there a way to get 8.2.5 to recognize the file, or a way to run the file as a script from a
different program like PG_ADMIN III? As far as I can see the archive is text. My postgresql
8.1.4 installation is no longer working.

su --command="/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump -p 55432 -U postgres -C -D -f /tmp/$(date
+%F)owl.sql owl"

Or just run the dump through psql.
psql -U postgres -d template1 -f /tmp/$(date +%F)owl.sql

Thank you this worked.
