Re: COPY x FROM STDIN escape handlers

I see the problem now. It was my file parser that was escaping the value 
then passing it to PQescapeString which resulted in \\n instead of \n. 
Guess I was on a wild goose chase. I guess PQescapeString() and 
PQputline() are mutally exclusive ... my bad!

Thanks,
