Hi!

Your example has not-ascii characters in command line. It is not good
practice.
If user switched on "Use UTF-8" flag in locale settings (it is user's
right to do it
on own computer), it forces all commands
use UTF-8 characters in command line. "Türkiye" will be transformed to
wrong text
by exec system call.

"Use UTF-8" flag appeared in Windows 10. It helps correctly input and
output
UTF-8 text (including correct behaviour of psql.exe utility under
Windows).
As consequence, it consider as obsolete all programs that uses national
chars in command line or do not expect UTF-8 in command line.
