[...] > Simon's Lisp was: (coding-system-put 'iso-2022-7bit > 'translation-table-for-decode (make-translation-table)) Yes, it works because it overrides the translation table created by unify-8859-on-decoding-mode. But, it results in that a Latin-2 char read by iso-2022-7bit is different from what read by iso-latin-2. I don't think such a change is a good idea. > Maybe that would make it possible to turn unify-8859-on-decoding-mode > on by default? It will stop unibyte<->multibyte automatic conversion in any single byte lang. env. (e.g. Latin-X, Greek) except for Latin-1. I think unify-8859-on-decoding-mode is still only for those people who knows the consequence of the command well. --- Ken'ichi HANDA handa@m17n.org
