  1. Reload of database with escaped data.

    Michael J. Rogan <mrogan@fpelectronics.com> — 1998-02-28T15:43:49Z

    Hello
    
    What is the best way to deal with ' " \ in a char/varchar/text fields?
    
    I have escaped them with \ which works and pg_dump dumps them correctly 
    however psql does not accept them.  Is there a way to tell psql to pass 
    all commands it does not understand?
    
    I need \\ \' \" passed through to the database or do I have to write my 
    own reload program or modify psql myself?
    
    Michael

     Hello
    
    Looking at the psql.c file it looks like it already checks to see if it is 
    in a quoted string so it seems that it is broken.
    Could someone check the latest tree?
