I tried adding a number of things to my .emacs, such as (prefer-coding-system 'mac-roman-mac) (set-buffer-file-coding-system 'mac-roman-mac) (set default-buffer-file-coding-system 'mac-roman-mac) with no result. The files do get saved, but are unreadable by other mac apps. Even re-opening them with emacs I get a bunch of ????'s (only accentuated characters such as é, à, ô, etc. come out OK...). For some odd reason I can correctly open mac-roman files, but saving them does not work. Any help will be greatly appreciated ! Regards,
