Re: How to insert non-english characters to the db?

Hi Andreas,

In the short run you might use pgSQL4RB
<http://aliacta.com/pgsql4rb.htm> which fully supports unicode.

It allows you to make postgresql client applications for Mac, OSX,
Windows, and soon Linux, all from the same code base. You might use
it in demo mode just to insert your foreign laguage characters while
you start up your project.
