To ./configure PostgreSQL 6.5.2 to run with JDBC 1.1.7 what encoding
should I use in the following:
"--with-mb-encoding enable multi-byte support" (from
www.postgresql.org/docs/admin/config.htm)
Many Thanks,

PS I found this:
Unicode can now be used in operating systems from Microsoft, IBM, DEC,
Sun, and Apple. Microsoft Windows NT uses Unicode as the default
character encoding in the OS; Windows 95 has most of the Microsoft
Unicode API in the MFC foundation class libraries. IBM, DEC, and Sun
offer Unicode in varying degrees of implementation, ranging from a full
Unicode development library provided with IBM AIX, to UTF-8 multi-byte
and UCS-4 wide-character support in Solaris, following the POSIX model.

so should I specify Unicode? Guess that it is worth a try.... Guess
that I should check out the Sun site too.
