E.F.:> LC_COLLATE=C
E.F.:> LC_CTYPE=C
E.F.:> LC_MESSAGES=pt_BR
E.F.:> LC_MONETARY=pt_BR
E.F.:> LC_NUMERIC=pt_BR
E.F.:> LC_TIME=pt_BR
E.F.:>

E.F.:> create table leo(
E.F.:> codigo int2 primary key,

E.F.:> );
E.F.:>
E.F.:> where

E.F.:> codigo | dia | valor
E.F.:> --------+------------+--------
E.F.:> 1 | 2002-02-02 | 200.00
E.F.:> (1 row)
E.F.:>
E.F.:> The field dia and valor are still shown with american style.
