On the other hand, we might also want to fix a coding system for Info files, so that their handling will not depend on the locale. Handa and Karl, what do you think?
If I'm understanding correctly, it can already be done. If you use the @documentencoding command in the Texinfo source, and then specify --enable-encoding to makeinfo, the resulting Info file(s) will contain a Local Variables section setting the `coding' variable. For instance, Local Variables: coding: iso-8859-2 End: This was done precisely so Emacs could know what encoding to use to display the Info file. karl _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
