Hi,

when processing a "normal" .tex-File with Postgresql I get the message

                   "invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xde6c"

Going through a code list I found that  this really seems to be a very 
strange character.

Question:
How can I can find and remove/replace this  byte sequence with emacs?

Thanks.

Very simple:
============

put into your customisations:

	'(read-quoted-char-radix 16)

so that you can enter any Unicode character with C-q <the hex bytes> <some non-hex character, SPACE, ESC, cursor movement> – I don't remember what the recommended procedure is. By this means you can now:

	M-x replace-string RET C-q d e 6 c RET RET <the substitute> RET
