Remove this line.  I'm not sure if it'll solve your particular
problem, but `standard-display-european' is evil.

Hi Jesper,

Unfortunately the behaviour didn't change.  Still get the "beep" when I
press Ctrl \

But what should I do to obtain correct Latin-1 encoding in Carbon
Emacs under Mac (GNU Emacs 21.3.50.11 (powerpc-apple-darwin7.4.0) of
2004-07-08 on cyrano) ?

No, you should use `set-language-environment' if you really need to
adjust the language settings in Emacs.  Usually Emacs gets the
right information from the locale settings.

,----[ C-h v current-language-environment RET ]
| current-language-environment's value is "Latin-1"
| 
| Documentation:
| The last language environment specified with `set-language-environment'.
| This variable should be set only with M-x customize, which is equivalent
| to using the function `set-language-environment'.

Input methods are defined in a package called "leim" that up to Emacs
version 21.3 come /not/ bundled with Emacs. You have to download and
install it separetely. Probably you forgot that when you reinstalled
your OS.

[I agree, btw., that `standard-display-european' is evil.]

Hi Oliver,

first, Debian seems not to hold a package called leim.  Second, and I
may have misread that, I found a webpage that said that leim is NOT
for emacs 21.3 but only for lower versions ... am I wrong with that?

Maybe Debian has decided to bundle leim with their Emacs package? Does
your Emacs directory (i.e. ".../share/emacs/<version>/") contain a
directory "leim" somewhere?

I don't know what the webpage you found says. But here is Leim for
Emacs 21.3:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-21.3-leim.tar.gz 

But I /think/ that you only need the single file defining the input
method.  IIRC, at least.  I can send it to you via PM, if you like.


[FYI: the CVS version of Emacs ships with leim included.]

language settings

[Raimund Kohl-Fuechsle]

Hello there,

I've to admit: I am close to being driven nuts!

I am running Debian Sarge on my Notebook (an old one, btw).  I
reinstalled Sarge a couple of days ago and since that I seem no longer
to be able to let emacs come up with the german Umlaute (I am using a
US keyboard).  Up to that reinstallation I just used Ctrl \ and mule
behaved the (I think usual) way to show an "a" with two dots above
after pressing "a

Nowadays this aint gonna work no more ... and I don't know why.  I
suppose I made a stupid mistake but obviously I am too blind to see
it.  Can anybody help?

I thought it wouldn't be to bad to see my .emacs ... so here it is:
