Hi all
I need to use polish charset in postgresql and it should be iso-8859-2.
But i dont know how to make postgresql use it. I try :
initdb -E ISO-8859-2    but it choose LATIN2 insteed iso :(.
also in psql SET CLIENT_ENCODING TO 'ISO-8859-2' doesn't work propertly.
Any sugestions?
THANKS
regards

AFAIK Latin2 and ISO-8859-2 are the same ;)
May be you need load the relative charset ? Or, if you are importing
from another doc to use konwert or recode?
Try man charset and similar.
