L.S.

It seems that ' \encoding ' only shows the correct client encoding if any
changes are applied by using the ' \encoding ' command itself.

If the client encoding is changed by using for example ' set names ' or ' set
client_encoding ', the result of ' \encoding ' will still be the former value.

However, the real encoding used seems to be changed, as  a call for ' show
client_encoding ' will demonstrate.


Any confirmation for this behaviour?
