Subject: Why multibyte for original-article buffer
Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2008 14:15:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <jwvd4qg3nfg.fsf-monnier+emacs@gnu.org> (raw)

I've been running with the following patch with good results.
Also the patch makes sense to me: the original article is a sequence of
bytes (i.e. encoded chars), so a unibyte buffer makes a lot of sense
(it's more efficient and is likely to hide fewer bugs).

Yet the code currently explicitly sets the buffer to multibyte mode.
Does anybody know why?
