(Cc-ing to emacs-devel, since it's a slightly more general problem.) We have the "c" interactive spec that's used in commands like `zap-to-char'. The "c" spec doesn't seem to allow using input methods, or to use `C-q'. So it's pretty difficult to zap to =C8=D5.=20=20 Should there be an interactive spec that allows reading one character, but allows input methods? Or does that make no sense? --=20 (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no/
