Обсуждение: Apostrophe doesn't show up in command line
In a field I have text like "in today's news..." When I select that field in psql using putty (Latin-1), then apostrophe doesn't show up (shows up as "todays"), but it does show up in phppgadmin (and other php programs). Is this an issue with psql, or putty (or something else)?

This sort of thing can be a real pain - you'll need to check every component involved. Start at the Windows/putty end, and check what character set phppgadmin is using (HINT: is it utf-8?) -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd

I don't see character set specified anywhere in phppgadmin (including conf.inc.php). CSN __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Ah, it's Western ISO-8859-1. Putty has the same setting. I tried changing putty's charset to UTF-8 and now curly apostrophes are displayed as a grey box in psql's output (e.g. "in today[box]s news...").
