Proper database shutdown procedure

I'm glad there is a novice list.

I can't find anything about database shutdown in the docs.
I'm more familiar with Oracle, where an improper shutdown
will leave the database in an inconsistent state. Will
PostgreSQL catch a kill signal and automatically start a
graceful shutdown, or is there something I'm missing?
