When I do eval (user-full-name) in "my" Emacs i get "Per Nordl\303\266w" but when I do it in Vanilla Emacs it works correctly and outputs: "Per Nordl=F6w" What variables control these encodings? >From the shell and from within my Emacs, using (getenv), LANG has the correct value "sv_SE.UTF-8". What variables have I missed? Thanks in advance, Nordl=F6w
