What are you talking about? This entire thread > has had "utf-8" in the subject line, and I have mentioned it in every > single message. The original thread (and thus the `utf-8' in the subject header) was about emacs `not recognizing utf-8 files,' and the message made it clear that it was non-CJK utf-8 files that were being talked about (and that emacs could read them correctly with a bit of assistance). You then recommended that he use `TEI emacs,' and I asked how they did a better job of auto-recognition. You then said `when doing mail in Emacs (21.2), there was never any automatic recognition of any kinds of non-Western encoding' -- no mention of utf-8, and as far as I could see, the topic was about encoding recognition in general, not specifically about utf-8 (the `any kinds of non-Western encoding' being a prime reason for this -- there are things besides utf-8...). Only later did you make a post which made it clear that you were talking about CJK utf-8 support (which indeed emacs does not currently have). A hint for using netnews: Topics drift, and subject headers are often inaccurate in followup postings (and so people tend to disregard them). -Miles -- Ich bin ein Virus.
