Hello,
I have written a function (latex-auto-coding-function) that determines
a LaTeX files encoding from i.e. a
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
line (if it is used).
It uses an alist for mapping the LaTeX input encoding names to Emacs'
coding system names. The entries in the alist that I have commented
out are those standard input encoding names in LaTeX that there are no
emacs codings for (or those that I could not identify the coding
system of).
If you find it useful it can be added to Emacs (the papers I signed
say "emacs gnus" - I don't whether that is for emacs AND gnus or just
for gnus).
I'm not a trained elisp programmer so feel free to comment on or
change the code.
If included it should probably be added to mule.el. I'm don't know
whether the latex-auto-coding-function should be added to
auto-coding-functions by default (sooner or later there will be a lot
of functions in there). I know it should be in my
auto-coding-functions though :-)
Kind regards,

Testing the above i discovered that widget-complete seems to have a
problem when trying to do completion in an empty field.
I tried with fields of type 'coding-system' and 'files' and for both
it looks like it is trying to do the completion from text outside the
field.
The problem is in a Emacs fresh from the trunk and with
--no-site-file and --no-init-file.
Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to investigate the
problem further at the moment.
Kind regards,

I think there should be a new variable for "mode to auto-coding-function"
mapping to be able to define
(latex-mode . latex-auto-coding-function).
And the fact that currently `auto-coding-functions' contains by default
`(sgml-xml-auto-coding-function sgml-html-meta-auto-coding-function)'
doesn't seem right. They are called for every buffer, not just HTML
and XML.
Thanks to the new variable `magic-mode-alist' now it is possible
to set SGML and HTML major modes depending on buffer contents.
So these functions could be added to "mode to auto-coding-function"
mapping to make them mode-dependent:
(xml-mode . sgml-xml-auto-coding-function)
(html-mode . sgml-html-meta-auto-coding-function)
instead of adding them to the default of `auto-coding-functions'.

Yes. That was why I thouhgt it might not be a good idea to just add
it to `auto-coding-functions'. It looks like a general problem to
have too many functions inspecting _every_ file you open.

[ remember I'm no expert so there is a good chance the following is
wrong ]
As I understand it it is too late to change the coding system in a
proper way after the file is loaded into a buffer. I looked a bit at
various functions and `revert-buffer-with-coding-system' is close to
being useful, but I still asks me if I'm sure I want to revert the
buffer.
[ well ... this _is_ how I understand it ... but there _should_ be a
way to change the coding system afterwards ]

I look a bit more in to it. And it actually seems more reasonable to
put the function (slightly changed) into `file-coding-system-alist'.
It could look like this:

The function is being called with an argument (arg) but I don't know
what I'm supposed to do with the argument so I ignore it at the
moment.

None of the coding systems you added are present in my Emacs. So why
add them? To make it easier for a user to customized when/if they are
added? Or are they present in your Emacs?

Beautiful!
Since the function no longer is supposed to be in `auto-coding-alist'
I think the name of the alist should be changed though. Maybe
`latex-inputenc-coding-alist' or something.

By the way. The re-search-forward searches until position 1000.
Should that number be customizable? The functions in
`auto-coding-alist' get an argument of 249 for number of positions to
search, but I think that is not enough for LaTeX files.
Kind regards,

All mentioned cp* codings are available, but not by default, see `M-x
codepage-setup RET TAB TAB'. I don't know if there is some mechanism
in Emacs call `codepage-setup' automatically.
I'm not sure about the cp437 vs. cp437de issue (β = \beta vs. ß = \ss
= S SHARP). Maybe this is good enough, see [1]. It seems that both,
`code-pages.el' and `codepage.el', use S SHARP.

Yes, a limit of 249 surely is not enough for typical LaTeX files.
Maybe the search could stop either at a certain number or when
"\begin{document}" was found. It should also be checked that the
"inputenc cookie" isn't a LaTeX comment.
If your code cannot be integrated in Emacs, I would propose to add it
to AUCTeX.

I would suggest to keep the cp* entries in the list. Or check if the

I think this is not the most right thing to do since there may
be LaTeX file extensions other than .tex and .ltx. The standard value
of `auto-mode-alist' has also .sty, .cl[so], .bbl as file extensions
corresponding to latex-mode. And users can add own mappings to
`auto-mode-alist' or use `-*- mode:latex -*-' headers.
In that case `file-coding-system-alist' wouldn't work.

`arg' is a list (operation, file-name, ...).
For an example of using it, you could look at the file
textmodes/po.el which is completely devoted to setting correct
encoding for PO files according to the "Charset=..." header.
Perhaps this file should be generalized to support more file types
like you want to do for LaTeX files with `inputenc' cookie.

In all of the mentioned cases, the files are not supposed to carry an
inputenc declaration. So this is not a particularly compelling
reason. However, we also have, say, .dtx and .drv files.

I think there should be a new variable for "mode to auto-coding-function"

Could we please stop looking for ideas for more features to add?
We're supposed to be aiming for a release.
Several bug reports came in the past few days; if you try debugging
one or two of them, that would be the kind of contribution that we
need now.

I know I've been silent about this for a while, but I've been busy and
had only limited time to weed out some bugs ...
I received some useful comments on the code. Here is a highlight of
what has changed:
- the function is added to `file-coding-system-alist' for the
extensions .tex .ltx .dtx and .drv (where you will normally find
inpuenc stuff)
- the encoding is search for in the LaTeX commands
\inputencoding{...} and \usepackage[...]{inputenc} (in that order)
- if the above command is in a comment (%) it is ignored
- if the encoding is not found we load code-pages and tries if that
make things better
Since you are all working hard on getting Emacs ready for release I
know it will probably not be added to cvs so I put it up on my website
<http://arnested.dk/filer/latexenc.el> and am just writing here to say
thanks for the comments.
Kind regards,
