Confirmed to work (both with unibyte mode, and without). The current
code is
(let (vv (v (getenv "EMACS_LANGENV")))
(and v (progn
(set-language-environment v)
(setq vv (car (get-language-info v 'coding-priority)))
(set-terminal-coding-system vv)
(set-keyboard-coding-system vv)
(set-input-mode (car (current-input-mode))
(nth 1 (current-input-mode))
'8bit)
(run-with-idle-timer
5 nil 'message ; Once, after 5 sec of inactivity
"Switch Cyr/Lat by Ctrl-\\, Cyr-Yawerty/Cyr-GOST by f9 \\"))))
However, it become harder and harder to document as "a solution"...
Thanks,
Ilya
