In psql \l (or \list) [...]. If your Postgres installation was compiled
with multibyte encoding support, the encoding scheme of each database is
shown as well.

****

To support UNICODE, PostgreSQL needs to be compiled with the right options.
Currently, in 7.1, there is no way to know which encodings are available
server-side.

****

Another info : there are holes between numbers:
12, 13, 14 and 15 return nothing. But:

16 -> KOI8
17 -> WIN
18 -> ALT
etc ...

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
