Is this possible to do in Lisp? I assume it is in C, right? If dired works or not is of lesser importance right now. I can live with (setq file-name-coding-system 'utf-8) and then see "Ide[]er" instead of "Idéer" but I would prefer, if possible off course, to have Emacs to fully understand the filename and handle, from the user's point of view, Idéer and Foobar equally. -- ( http://hem.bredband.net/steverud !
