Karl, Can it be the font used in the menu not having åäöÅÄÖ?. Try changing the menu font. -- Ake "Karl Landström" wrote in message news:mailman.961.1070413001.399.bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org... This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation, not to your local site managers!

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list, and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-windows98.2222) of 2003-03-28 on buffy configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: sve locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1 default-enable-multibyte-characters: t Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: When I visit a file whose file name contains one of the letters `å', `ä', `ö', `Å', `Ä' or `Ö' the file name is displayed correctly in the mode line, but in the buffer menu an unfilled square is displayed before each occurence of one of the letters mentioned. The same happens when `frame-title-format' is set to "%b". Regards, Karl L.
