if i try to import data via SQL-Inserts (exported with pgManager) out from an utf-8 file i get always parse errors in the first line.
After switching to ascii and using of SET client_encoding TO 'latin1' i can import all lines, but some unicode-characters are, like expected, damaged.
Now my question: Can psql process Unicodefiles?
Sure. Try this at the top of your file:
\encoding UNICODE
I think you could also set the ENCODING variable on the command line with the -v option.
