I don't really care one way or another, but Peter (Dyballa) suggests that it would be more user-friendly if non-ASCII characters entered/searched-for via C-q used a standard like unicode to interpret , rather than Emacs internal character numbers as it does now. [In Emacs 23, of course, Emacs internal character numbers will _be_ unicode, so the distinction will go away.] -Miles -- The car has become... an article of dress without which we feel uncertain, unclad, and incomplete.
