- OemToChar() and CharToOem() convert all console input/output. In the

I do not think that it is possible to handle all cases automatically.
Even restricting the conversion to input/output on stdin/stdout will fail in
some circumstances; eg. with the command "psql < script.sql" when the
script has been written with a windows editor (notepad, emacs or whatever).
It would be very hard to get right. Perhaps something like isatty(),
except that it's probably called GetHandleIsConsoleFlag() or something
like that, followed by a check of the code page. But I didn't find a
suitable function yet.
