Actually PostgreSQL does support Big5. To use Big5, set the client encoding to Big5 and set the server(DB) encoding to EUC_TW. PostgreSQL will take care of the conversion between Big5 and EUC_TW. There are several ways to set the client encoding to Big5: SQL: set client_encoding to 'Big5'; from psql: \encoding Big5 using environment variable: export PGCLIENTENCODING=Big5 (example for bash) Hope this helps, -- Tatsuo Ishii ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
