Subject: Copy-paste between pretest Emacs 22 and other Linux programs
Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2007 19:11:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45AA7239.4090104@guests.ipipan.gda.pl> (raw)
Hello Everybody,
I would like to report that copying a text with Polish national
letters from an X-based program (like: xterm, gnome terminal,
kde terminal, thudirbird, firefox) and pasting it into Emacs
does not work properly within an environment which is utf-8,
both in the operating system and in Emacs.
If you can see the following eighteen Polish letters
ĄĆŹŻŚŁÓŃĘąźśżćęńłó
properly in your e-mail client, which you should if you have set
utf-8 as your basic encoding, then could you copy them into Emacs,
also configured to work with utf-8? Do you see them right? If so,
I would be happy to know all of your settings. My related .emacs
settings are quoted below.
Currently, I am running a pretest Emacs version 22.00.92.1, installed
from a tarball. Previously, I had version 22.00.52.1, compiled from
CVS sources. I am running Emacs under Linux Fedora 5. In both these
versions the Polish characters get mangled when they are copied into
Emacs. Interestingly, copying Polish characters from Emacs to other
X-based utilities works fine. Also, I do not experience problems with
editing Polish texts, whether I am using iso-latin-2 or utf-8 encoding.
As the problem is somewhat technical, can anybody who knows the
respective fragments of Emacs write my in private, to decide
whether it's really a bug in Emacs or just a matter of wrong
settings within my .emacs. Of course, I may supply any necessary
information about my installation.
Since unicode is now the core issue of Emacs develpmpent, then if
what I have described is result of a bug then it has to be removed.
Cheers,
Rysiek

I am also using cua-mode, with this customization setting:
'(cua-mode t nil (cua-base))
Interestingly, when I copy the Polish letters from another
X-based program into Emacs, the following messages are generated:
Loading subst-ksc...done
Loading subst-gb2312...done
Loading subst-big5...done
Loading subst-jis...done
Do these have anything to do with East European languages?
