The so-called apostrophes from MS Word could be single quote =20 characters from the area UTF+201x. Maybe it works to C-q in some =20 (*scratch*) buffer and then paste just that "apostrophe." You might =20 see the bytes that would be actually inserted. The three bytes of =20 UTF-8 representation (E2 80 99 for =92, RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK) =20 can be interpreted as this: E2 is in 7-bit idiom C-r (single 8th bit =20 set + remainder r), the other two bytes can be any 7-bit rubbish. GNU Emacs offers some "translations" for X selections =96 lookup info! =20= X11 also has some configuration options. A better option is to =20 upgrade to GNU Emacs 22.3. -- Greetings Pete Isn't vi that text editor with two modes... one that beeps and one =20 that corrupts your file? =96 Dan Jacobson, on = comp.os.linux.advocacy
