I have just recently started using postgres so please be patient.
I'm curently experiencing trouble adding text fields using libpq from a
C++ program.  If the "C" string contains newline characters the record
fails to get appended and postgres prints:

WARN:Jun 13 16:55:27:*** scanner error: Unterminated char/string
constant

I need to get these newline characters stored or else store every line
as a different text array element (blah).  I'm sure I am missing
something simple, but please help if you can.

Thanks
