The problem arises with Enhanced Carbon Emacs (v. 2.1), distributed as a binary. >From its page : >> This emacs is based on the standard emacs-21.3.50 CVS distribution CVS version: 2002-12-01 -- see http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~franconi/enhanced-carbon-emacs/ Some friendly soul on gnu.emacs.help said it was a bug, fixed a few weeks ago. Since I am new to emacs + no guru with compiling, I will wait for the next binary update.

What Version of Emacs have you installed. CVS-Head from today or what? I have the build from 17.02.2003 and i have no problems to save files with mac-roman. I tried adding a number of things to my .emacs, such as (prefer-coding-system 'mac-roman-mac) Is working very pretty to me. Maybe it has to do with the many emacs's installed in /usr/bin (?) I have all emacs-files installed in /usr/local/bin /usr/local/share. That's the Default i think.
