I use emacs 21.2 on a linux-system (precompiled (SuSE) and self compiled) and netscape 7.0 ( Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020823 Netscape/7.0 ). If I copy&paste Text from emails or web-pages into an emacs-buffer, special characters like φόδί (german Umlaute + sz) are lost. In Netscape, the Coding-sytsem is set to ISO-8859-1 (View-Character Coding). I tried different functions and variables, but I had no success (some example): (set-language-environment "latin-9") (setq selection-coding-system "raw-text") (setq selection-coding-system "iso-8859-1") (set-default-coding-systems 'iso-8859-1 ) (set-clipboard-coding-system 'iso-8859-1) (setq clipboard-coding-system 'raw-text) The special characters are replaced by '?' or 'o"' (if I use (setq selection-coding-system "iso-8859-1") and copy&paste a 'φ').
