   character: å (2277, #o4345, #x8e5, U+00E5)
     charset: latin-iso8859-1
              (Right-Hand Part of Latin Alphabet 1 (ISO/IEC 8859-1): 
ISO-IR-100.)
  code point: #x65
      syntax: w 	which means: word
    category: l:Latin
buffer code: #x81 #xE5
   file code: #xE5 (encoded by coding system iso-latin-1-unix)
     display: by this font (glyph code)
      -Misc-Fixed-Bold-R-Normal--13-120-75-75-C-80-ISO8859-1 (#xE5)

Okay, guess I was wrong. I know much more about emacs char encoding now.

I try now to reproduce the problem (if it appears again)... Maybe it was 
emacs-snapshot (v 23) which caused the problems... I changed back to 22.

Even pasting utf-8 text to latin1 -buffer keeps the buffer encoding. Good!

Hopefully the problem does not reoccur when I'm very busy working :D
