GNU Emacs 23 from CVS I'd guess that Uwe prevailingly needs Spanish and German non-ASCII characters. Those are sufficiently supported by already in Emacs 21 with (add-to-list 'file-coding-system-alist '("/wikipedia/" utf-8)) as suggested by Stefan. With this entry every file in .../wikipedia/ is de- and encoded with UTF-8. For example, I wrote the following in Emacs 21 and everything is displayed correctly: ÄÖÜ äöü ß „Hallo Welt und Grüß Gott“ éíúáó ÉÍÚÁÓ ñ¡¿ ¡Hola! “Hello world” ∑ α > GNU Emacsen 21.4 and 22 (from CVS) fail to show a particular glyph > when it's not in the font or fontset used. Maybe there's something wrong in your fontset config or your system. My Emacs 21, correctly uses -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-SemiCondensed--13-120-75-75-C-60-ISO8859-1 for “ü” and -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-SemiCondensed--13-120-75-75-C-60-ISO10646-1 for “α”.
