That would be `C-c C-e l o'.

Thanks !

Why do you think this is dangerous? Because of the `-shell-escape'?
Without it you will not get source code highlighting (with minted).
Also -shell-escape is not as dangerous as it seems. It can be only if
somehow you have a malicious/buggy package in your texlive installation,
and you happen to use in your TeX source.

:) I have only reproduced the code and its comment from somewhere in the internet. I am not expert enough to say if it is dangerous or not.
I just note that the deactivation of this code in my init.el solves the problem of French accents.
Unfortunately, I have to forget the highlighting code with minted. I had also some problem with minted, and it seems that things work better with a more thin init.el ...

I'm using texlive with Xubuntu at the moment , and it is true that I did not meet this problem under Debian testing, so, there is maybe a bug somewhere in the texlive packages of Ubuntu or Debian sid servers... it is an unwelcome "troll" ;)

Best wishes
