Subject: Coding system in compilation buffer
Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2007 21:32:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4755B955.5080809@tiscali.nl> (raw)
I am using GNU Emacs 22.1.1 part of SuSE Linux 10.3 x86_64.
When doing a compile gcc writes its messages/warnings using utf-8 which
does not help readability when the buffers assumes latin-1.
According to the documentation compilation-process-setup-function is
called with compilation-buffer bound. I think that variable is actually
called outbuf in compile.el That would be a documentation bug, however
minor; the rest is a question.
I tried emacs initialization with:
>>
(defun compile-utf ()
"Set compilation buffer for UTF-8"
( save-current-buffer
(set-buffer outbuf)
(set-buffer-process-coding-system "utf-8" "utf-8")))
(setq compilation-process-setup-function 'compile-utf)
<<
That doesn't work either complaining that there is no process yet.
I don't want to set a global utf-8 preference as normally I prefer
latin-1, which works fine for a West-European (for years I worked with
ASCII only).
Does the above idea make sense, if so how do I make it work, or is there
an alternative better approach?
Regards,
Enno Fennema
