You should not need to escape french characters. Try this test
script:
Just use 'cut and paste' to paste eash line into the command line
interface and you will see it works fine.
use test;
create table français (
id int unsigned auto_increment primary key,
text char(60)
);
insert français (text) values ('crée français');
select * from français;
Si tu parle français bien et tu veux que je t'aide donner moi un coup
direct à [EMAIL PROTECTED] et je t'aiderai.
