However, here at my new employee I see weird interactions between font-lock and what might be a coding issue. If, e.g., I use "\bf" in a LaTeX-mode file (deprecated, I know :-) I instead see what looks roughtly like "¥bf" (it's actually a differently looking Yen-symbol, presumably from a different font). Any idea what could be the reason and how to debug this? I never before had any problem like this! This is GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2006-08-11 on yort.fnal.gov with hasgksssven>/.../utcke% echo $LANG en_US Any help appreciated Sven -- ___ _ _____ ___ Dr.-Ing.
