Thread: psql output in Japanese Code Page

Hi,

While under Code Page 932 (=Japanese) the old PSQL 9.5.5 - used to talk plain English, like in \d <table name>

This behavior has changed in PSQL 10. We are now forced to run "chcp 1252" before any PSQL activity.

Does anyone know about it? Any suggestions?

I tried \encoding WIN1252. Did not work.

Thanks

Danny Abraham

What's your database encoding? (\l command on psql prompt will show it).
Also what's the result of chcp (with no argument).
