Normally it happens when I'm searching and navigating buffers (using C-s, C-M-s, M-< etc) but I dont know what triggers it, I think I've only seen it while browsing *scratch* but I'm far from sure. anyhow at some point when I type "qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm" emacs displays =E9=F6=F3=EA=E5=ED=E3=F8=A2=E7=F4?=E2=E0=EF=F0=EE=EB=E4=FF=F7=F1=EC= =E8=F2=FC which is not good, Control-key combinations are Working correct, but M- x example gives M-x =F3=F7=F4=FC=E7=E4=F3 which of course is unparsable. Usi= ng the menubar files for opening files, the files display correctly. Other programs are also working correctly (I experience an out of the blue locale change for the windows keyboard mapping in the past but that affected all programs). I tried emacs 22.1 and 22.2, doesnt make a difference, I completely emptied the .emacs. Is there a quick solutions and explanation of behavior above? Oh jah platform is windows XP. Right now the only way to solve this is to restart emacs many thanks in advance, regards, Jeroen.
