Hi,
 I am using RpgSQL to retrieve data from a PostgreSQL database wich is
with encoding UTF8, and I have some Chinese character in one of the
columns, unfortunately R can't show it correctly.
> df <- dbGetQuery(con, "select * from test")
> df
  a            b
1 1 顾尿³\xa2
2 2   è¦æ EURO\xa1
I see the following option, do I need to change the encoding option to
show the corresponding texts? In my case how to set?
$encoding
[1] "native.enc"
Thanks,
Xiaobo Gu
