Ahh! So you're with GNU Emacs 22.x? I can reproduce it in 22.2. Once =20 I check this character in Kermit's utf8.txt file it's described as: character: =E2=96=92 (299218, #o1110322, #x490d2, U+2592) charset: mule-unicode-2500-33ff (Unicode characters of the range U+2500..U+33FF.) In UTF-8 presentation this character is encoded with these three =20 bytes: E2 96 92. These are in "ASCII" (rather an 8-bit "ASCII"): =20 =E2=80=9A =C3=B1 =C3=AD. Using C-q 1 1 1 0 3 2 2 I = can insert =20 HALF SHADE. Could be this non-Unicode Emacs has to use some extras to =20= handle this ... If no-one on this list has an explanation I'd write a bug report (see =20= Help menu), also mentioning the 'Invalid character' message. Although =20= it looks as if GNU Emacs 22.x seems to recommend to use 1110322 =20 instead of 22622 ... -- Mit friedvollen Gr=C3=BC=C3=9Fen Pete Mac OS X is like a wigwam: no fences, no gates, but an apache inside.
