Hello,

When I compile a program in emacs, I notice that I get some strange 
escape sequences in the compiler output window of emacs. For example, if 
my program is:
----------------------------------------------------------------
#include<iostream>
int main(){
     int i,j;
     std::cout << "Hellow Wrold!" << std::endl;
     return 0;
}
----------------------------------------------------------------

and I compile it with:
g++ -Wall -ansi -o testprog testprog.cc

I get the following in my emacs compiler message window (notice the 
strange characters around the variables and function names):
----------------------------------------------------------------
g++ -Wall -ansi -o testprog testprog.cc
testprog.cc: In function ‘int main()’:
testprog.cc:6: warning: unused variable ‘i’
testprog.cc:6: warning: unused variable ‘j’

Compilation finished at Thu Jun 29 15:01:30
----------------------------------------------------------------

The strange characters around a variable are(I have typed the 
backslashes and numbers so that they are displayed properly here):
on left hand side: â\200\230
on right hand side: â\200\231


I guess this has something to do with the face of those strings in the 
compiler output in emacs. And that I may not have proper fonts 
installed. Am I on the right track? All inputs are welcome in solving 
this little problem.

BTW, this started happening only after I reintalled Debian Etch a few 
weeks ago.

I have:
 > dpkg -l *emacs* | grep ^ii

thanks,
