Thank you! There isn't much difference compared =20 to using Apple's ls; in GNU Emacs 22.0.50 UTF-8 characters are still =20 displayed as a series of UTF-8 octets, and in GNU Emacs 23.0.0 I =20 still cannot search for file names with German umlauts etc. Hopefully others have more success! -- Greetings Pete "A designer knows he has arrived at perfection not when there is no =20= longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take =20 away." -- Antoine de Saint-Exup=E9ry
