Subject: 8 bit input chars on tty broken
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2002 08:56:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200207191256.g6JCuPa06692@beta.siege-engine.com> (raw)
Hi,
I got a new CVS build running a couple days ago (21.3.50.1) after
running 21.1.x for quite some time. In the transition, 8 bit input
chars on a TTY lost their meta-ness. Thus, I press ALT-X which
creates an 8 bit character, and it inserts a circle with a line
through it instead of providing my favorite prompt.
I looked through NEWS on input methods, but saw nothing indicating
such a change. I checked my input methods (after learning what
they were) and it appears that I am running with full defaults
(nil).
I also used apropos to look up input methods, 8 bit, and a few
other things but didn't see a configuration variable for this new
behavior.
I retested in 21.1, and 21.2 and they work fine. ALT-X in an X
version of the same Emacs also works fine.
GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
