In both cases, we want the ;; entire range of 8-bit characters to arrive at our display code ;; verbatim. (standard-display-8bit 127 255) Is it really working in non-iso-8859-1 environment as expected? Note that 128..255 are latin-1 characters after Emacs 23, not raw-bytes. So, I think the above call will make 8-bit bytes in unibyte buffer displayed as latin-1 characters, but as the termial encoding system doesn't support latin-1 chars in, for instance, greek environment, just '?' will be displayed. --- Kenichi Handa handa@m17n.org
