What am i missing? Regards, Clodoaldo

My guess this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/release-9-1.html
"E.4.3.10.1. libpq

Add a libpq connection option client_encoding which behaves like
he PGCLIENTENCODING environment variable (Heikki Linnakangas)
The value auto sets the client encoding based on the operating
system locale.
"

No, probably more this (under "psql")

Well I was half way there:)
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/app-psql.html

"If at least one of standard input or standard output are a terminal, then psql sets the client encoding to "auto", which will detect the appropriate client encoding from the locale settings (LC_CTYPE environment variable on Unix systems). If this doesn't work out as expected, the client encoding can be overridden using the environment variable PGCLIENTENCODING."


        * Have psql set the client encoding from the operating system locale by 
default (Heikki Linnakangas)

        This only happens if the PGCLIENTENCODING environment variable is not 
set.

I think the idea was to try to match your terminal window's encoding
automatically.
