[Gvsig_english] dbf encoding-postgis

[Francisco José Peñarrubia]

Hi Magdalena.

I think I know what is the problem.

Java uses a string "UTF-8" to name the encoding, and PostgreSQL uses a 
"UTF8" or "Unicode" string to name the encoding. We can fix it for next 
release, but until then, can you use a "Latin1" Postgresql database?.
I guess if you try with a Latin1, you will be able to work with your 
characters well.

Let us know it it is enough for you, please.

Fran.
