Here is a bit more info and some progress I have made. 1) The machine to which my monitor and keyboard are attached is running Fedora 7 2) I connect via ssh tunneling to a machine that is running Fedora 5 and open up a gui emacs The command is ssh ... "/usr/bin/emacs -fn lucidasanstypewriter-12" 3) In older versions of emacs (when running on various flavors of UNIX or in Windows) I used the mule package which has input modes and the polish-slash mode was such that /a produced =C4=85, /e produced =C4=99 etc 4) On the Federa 7 box, I have enabled the polish keyboard and thus produce "ogonki" in any application 5) When I open up firefox on the Fedora 5 box via ssh tuneling I can produce "ogonki" in the same way 6) I cannot produce polish characters in emacs on the Fedora 5 machine. My IT people are going to take away the Fedora 5 machine so this may be a mute point but I would like to learn what is going on.
