Thanks a lot!
In your opinion, should I re-compile the PostgreSQL after set the $LANG
to ja_JP.utf8? or I need to set other variables' value..
I changed the $LANG value, but the result still not correct, and not found
anything about it in PostgrSQL's document.
Thx
Jiang Sheng

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
