It may be a powerpc-specific problem. Can someone else using Emacs on that platform reproduced it? By the way, you wrote: > I find that `M-x shell' would end in some endless loop when > `file-coding-system-alist' has been set to something like Please do M-x toggle-debug-on-quit RET, and the M-x shell. Does Emacs react on C-g when it seems to be in endless loop? If so, what is shown in *Backtrace* buffer? --- Kenichi Handa handa@m17n.org
