I'm also not sure what to set LC_CTYPE to, or how to set it... It doesn't auto-complete with setenv, so I assume there's a different function responsible for changing its value. -- View this message in context: http://emacs.1067599.n5.nabble.com/Character-encoding-problem-tp288388p288506.html Sent from the Emacs - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
