Thus, I have first to set language environment to "Latin-2", then to open text file and finally to select "latin-2-prefix" as input method. So I was thinking about automating above process by creating corresponding emacs mode and then to reference this mode from first line of related documents; if everything setup properly, emacs should be able to apply all necessary settings upon opening document. However, while everything else works fine, emacs seems to be unable to change language environment using above procedure. Any suggestion here? Thanks
