Is it possible to define the database encoding via arguments in the configuration?

Not currently but, definitely be open to adding this feature via a pull request if necessary. I can investigate but it may take some time.

As a work around you may be able to create your secondary database once the init process has completed.

It would be awesome to have it. The whole package is great and that is the only thing that I have a problem with.

I'm also interested in having this feature and would like to work on it.

Btw another possible workaround is to specify a locale. e.g. en_US changes the encoding from SQL_ASCII to UTF8.
