character encoding

[Doug Kunzman <dkunzman@xxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to support an automatic character
encoding to UNICODE so Java strings with none ASCII character can be stored
in a table.

I've edited my postgressql.conf with
the following command,
PGCLIENTENCODING=UNICODE

And I'm getting this error message,

FATAL:  unrecognized configuration parameter "PGCLIENTENCODING"

Any ideas?  your help would be
appreciated.

Thanks, doug
