Subject: Single unrecognized character wrecks entire display
Date: Sat, 18 Aug 2012 18:35:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.wi8wcskadp0apa@eucalyptus> (raw)
Hi all,
I have a file created by a translation software. The file initially
displayed well in emacs and after some edit in the translation software it
didn’t anymore and reverted to raw text. I got this message when I tried
to save in utf-8:
utf-8-mac cannot encode these: \351 \350 \351 \342 \351 \234 \350 \350
\311 \240
In short all the non ASCI had become unrecognized. However once I removed
a \234 character,that should display as œ, I could save it and recover a
correct display in emacs.
Is there a way to quickly spot the offending character within emacs in
such cases ?
Alexandre
