Yeah, this isn't rude or insulting at all...

Funny how my "incorrectly set up terminal" works perfectly for all other 
programs and my own test scripts, but not for pg_dump specifically. And only 
when using "special" characters. As already pointed out multiple times, in 
great detail, to deaf ears. Very interesting how you can manage to twist and 
bend that into it still somehow being "my fault". Because of course it cannot 
be pg_dump's fault. Absolutely not. It is unthinkable. It's the "rude user"'s 
fault who had the audacity to point out yet another PG bug which more than 
likely won't *ever* be fixed, as it's not even recognized, much less cared 
about. Probably because they *want* PostgreSQL to be crippled on Windows, 
judging by the responses in the past and how incredibly broken the joke of an 
installer is.

You should call it "Linux software with minimal pre-alpha Windows support" 
instead of pretending that it's cross-platform, and that goes for many FOSS 
projects as well which think exactly the same as you. The fact that I still use 
this garbage OS (Windows) speaks volumes of how incredibly crappy Linux is, 
which is utterly *unusable*.

But of course I should be grateful no matter what because it doesn't cost 
money. Because my time and energy is worthless. And the competition is "even 
worse", so that means I cannot point out any fault, ever, no matter how serious 
or how easily it could be fixed. I should just shut up and thank everyone for 
insulting me through carelessness and words. Or "fix it myself", because that's 
obviously an option as I haven't done it so far...

I did read the rest of your e-mail, but it would be pointless to reply to it as 
you clearly have the mentality that everyone should dedicate their lives to 
configuring a database and buying books instead of using it, because everyone 
should be core developers and everything must always be cryptic and difficult 
and blablabla. I'm sick of this attitude, and especially of being called "rude" 
by such rude-beyond-words people.

It would be refreshing to hear your be honest for once and just admit that you 
*want* it to be difficult. You *like* that there's a high threshold and it 
makes you feel superior to exclude "dumb" people who can't figure out all these 
cryptic (and downright broken) things. I truly believe that this is the reason 
for a lot of "weird" things which seem to make no sense on the surface.
