I just run the following experiment (the result you might respect, but I
found it surprising).
1. I open a new file.
2. I write שלום איל
3. I save it as iso8859-8 (no warning pops up)
4. I reopen the file and its interpreted as iso8859-1
Firstly, why does Emacs expect this to be iso8859-1? Is there any variable
I could change?
Secondly, shouldn't Emacs send a warning: «you are saving this file as
single-byte, be aware that when emacs reopen the file it might not
guess the coding» or something like this???
