Re: [HACKERS] initdb problem

Some characters in Big5 encoding has a / on
second byte and I think poEdit will add another / for me.
Now I think I should use UTF-8 instead of Big5.
I will send new files in minutes. Sorry for causing problems.

Since not only \ but also other characters that have special meaning
to compiler are used by Big5 Chinese characters. Adding an extra \
can make non-Big5 aware environment happy. I think we can get rid of
this dirty work by using UTF-8 instead of the annoying Big5 problem.
