Hi All,
I'm using Emacs 21.3.50.2 from CVS (compiled 2003-12-11) on Mac OS X
with the Carbon support. I'd like to be able to view Unicode (utf-8)
content, and use a font that supports it, but Emacs does not display
most Unicode characters (those that are > 255, it appears). This may be
a FAQ, but since Emacs from CVS doesn't have Mule anymore, I've been
unable to figure out how to get it to display the Unicode characters.
Any pointers or instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Many TIA,
David
PS: I'm not on the list, so please Cc me on replies. Thanks!

Do you have something like (set-frame-font "fontset-mac") in your .emacs?

No. And adding it appears to make no difference.
Regards,
David

Maybe you have emacs set to unibyte somewhere. For example by calling
standard-display-european in your .emacs file.
Check the value of the variables `enable-multibyte-characters' and
`default-enable-multibyte-characters'.
