copy and paste

[锁住子 <girzel@gmail.com>]

I found the functions below online somewhere, for easing the process
of copying and pasting between emacs and Mac OSX's clipboard. It
works, but doesn't seem to be encoding aware -- if I kill from a
unicode-encoded buffer and paste into a different osx application (eg
Mail), non-ASCII characters come out garbled. My language environment
is set to UTF-8, is there something I can add in the functions below
that will specify string encoding? I'm trying to achieve all Unicode,
all the time.

Thanks!

(defun copy-from-osx ()

(defun paste-to-osx (text &optional push)
 (let ((process-connection-type nil))
   (let ((proc (start-process "pbcopy" "*Messages*" "pbcopy")))
     (process-send-string proc text)
     (process-send-eof proc))))

(setq interprogram-cut-function 'paste-to-osx)
