Subject: selection-coding-system and pasting to Firefox
Date: 01 Jun 2005 11:55:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87is0ymjm1.fsf@wivenhoe.staff8.ul.ie> (raw)
I've had problems pasting from Emacs 21 to firefox (under Debian),
and have stumbled on a solution:
M-x set-selection-coding-system RET iso-latin-1-unix RET
I can now paste to firefox (and paste strings with accented
characters to xclipboard, which was my workaround).
Question: what do I lose or risk by setting selection-coding-system
away from the default, compound-text-with-extensions?
Brendan
