Unicode in regexp

Unicode in regexp

[Torsten Bronger]

Hallöchen!

* A list-item-style beginning of a line is interpreted as such by
  Emacs, as demonstrated here.

However, I want to use notes mode for taking on-line notes, and
there this has a special meaning, so I want to use "•" (the real
bullet in Unicode) instead.  I know that

 '(adaptive-fill-regexp "[ \t]*\\([-!|#%;>*]+[ \t]*\\|(?[0-9]+[.)][ \t]*\\)*")

in the appropriate place in my .emacs can do this, but how do I add
the unicode to it?  Although the .emacs starts with

;-*- Mode: Emacs-Lisp; coding: utf-8; -*-

a direct insertion doesn't work, neither does the UTF-8 code
sequence translated to Latin-1.

Any hints?  Thank you!

Tschö,
Torsten.

And you custom statement (custom-set-variables ...) is in ~/.emacs?

Putting this in my-adapt-utf.el and loading it in Emacs works for me
in text mode.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; -*- coding: utf-8; -*-
(setq adaptive-fill-regexp
      "[ \t]*\\([-!|#%;>*•]+[ \t]*\\|(?[0-9]+[.)][ \t]*\\)*")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Bye, Reiner.
