Subject: encoding of lisp/language/devan-util.el
Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2003 16:33:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87of4eynd1.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
I cannot make bootstrap, because devan-util.el gives me a parse error
(parenthesis missing). When I open the file, and move down to defvar
dev-char-glyph, I can see the problem: the cdr of the second element
in the alist is corrupt (using \e for escape): "\e$,4 K")\e(B" -- the
quote after the K closes the string, etc.
Obviously the file is not being decoded correctly. Calling M-x
describe-coding-system returns:
Coding system for saving this buffer:
J -- iso-2022-7bit-unix
Default coding system (for new files):
1 -- iso-latin-1 (alias: iso-8859-1 latin-1)
This looks ok. What is the problem, then?
At first I thought this is due to my locale: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1
But even when I export LANG=C and use emacs -q the problem persists.
Alex.
