+July 11, 1999
+ * Add support for WIN1250 (Windows Czech) as a client encoding
+ (contributed by Pavel Behal)
+ * fix some compiler warnings (contributed by Tomoaki Nishiyama)
+
Mar 23, 1999
* Add support for KOI8(KOI8-R), WIN(CP1251), ALT(CP866)
(thanks Oleg Broytmann for testing)
* fix problems concerning 8-bit single byte characters
Mar 1, 1998 PL1 released
+
+Appendix:
+
+[Here is a good documentation explaining how to use WIN1250 on
+Windows/ODBC from Pavel Behal. Please note that Installation step 1)
+is not necceary in 6.5.1 -- Tatsuo]

+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO WARRANTY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+Instalation:
+------------
+1) Change three affected files in source directories
+ (I don't have time to create proper patch diffs, I don't know how)
+2) Compile with enabled locale and multibyte set to LATIN2
+3) Setup properly your instalation, do not forget to create locale
+ variables in your profile (environment). Ex. (may not be exactly true):
+ LC_ALL=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+ LC_COLLATE=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+ LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+ LC_MONETARY=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+ LC_NUMERIC=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+ LC_TIME=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
+4) You have to start the postmaster with locales set!
+5) Try it with Czech language, it have to sort
+5) Install ODBC driver for PgSQL into your M$ Windows
+6) Setup properly your data source. Include this line in your ODBC
+ configuration dialog in field "Connect Settings:" :
+ SET CLIENT_ENCODING = 'WIN1250';
+7) Now try it again, but in Windows with ODBC.
+
+Description:
+------------
+- Depends on proper system locales, tested with RH6.0 and Slackware 3.6,
+ with cs_CZ.iso8859-2 loacle
+- Never try to set-up server multibyte database encoding to WIN1250,
+ always use LATIN2 instead. There is not WIN1250 locale in Unix
+- WIN1250 encoding is useable only for M$W ODBC clients. The characters are
+ on thy fly re-coded, to be displayed and stored back properly
+
+Important:
+----------
+- it reorders your sort order depending on your LC_... setting, so don't be
+ confused with regression tests, they don't use locale
+- "ch" is corectly sorted only in some newer locales (Ex. RH6.0)
+- you have to insert money as '162,50' (with comma in aphostrophes!)
+- not tested properly
