Hello,

The following statement replaces an asterisk in a string with a double-escaped 
asterisk:
SELECT regexp_replace('*',E'\\*',E'\\\\\\\\\*');

I got this result through experimentation and I am at a loss to explain why so 
much escaping is necessary for the third argument. Is there a better way?

Cheers,
M
