You could try something like this: (setq auto-coding-regexp-alist (cons '("[\040-\177][\200-\237]" . cp1252) auto-coding-regexp-alist)) I don't think that's a general purpose solution since (1) auto-coding-regexp-alist actually has precedence over `-*-coding:-*-' file variables and (2) other encodings probably use those o200 - o237 bytes (certainly other Microsoft Windows code pages do). -- Kevin Rodgers
