Setting Up User Accounts For PostgreSQL ?

I have recently installed PostgreSQL onto my Linux system. I installed and
set it up under the account name of 'postgres' where I am able to create
and manage databases.

How do I set another account (namely my normal login 'pmoscatt') so that I
can create and manage databases instead of logging in as 'postgres' ??

Perhaps this question would be better directed to -general?

The documentation for PostgreSQL is suprisingly good as well but I assume
you've read that and are still confused :)
