They shouldn't do the same thing since one is for decoding and the other for encoding. Anyway I think I'll stick with Custom since it's probably the less error prone method. Apparently unify on encoding is safe but the other one can cause information loss. > > If this doesn't work for you, maybe it's a bug in Emacs-21.[34]. > Try it with Emacs-CVS where it *should* work, > > > Stefan I am using the NT build and am not comfortable compiling from source. I have cygwin running under MS win but have never tried to build anything with gcc. In my case it might be wiser just to wait for the 21.4 (22.0?) NT binaries. I would like to install the rfc1345 input method but that probably requires a rebuild also. I put this in my leim-list.el: ;;(register-input-method ;; "rfc1345" "UTF-8" 'quail-use-package <- is this right activate function??? ;; "&utf<" "Utf-8 characters input method &prefix with postfix modifiers" <- is title to go in mode line arbitrary? ;; "quail/rfc1345") but I don't dare to uncomment it because its dependencies seem to ramify usque ad infinitum and I can't afford to break the functionality I have now. I haven't run into any related files that aren't compiled lisp functions, though. Does that mean that they are just *.elc or are some of them built-ins written in C? Again, thanks anyway. Ed.
