Using the Emacs Input Method (I prefer this since I use Emacs in 3 differnt OS) solves the problem. You can choose between german prefix where ß is the result of the sequence " and s (prefix version work somethin like iso-accents-mode, so wovels with umlauts are entered with the sequence " (wovel)) and german postfix where you get the same result by hitting s and then z. In this mode wovels with umlauts are entered typing what I think is the "no umlaut version" of the word (I don't speak German -blame on me- so I'm not sure...). >> Hmmm...

UH> Aren't they just from FreeBSD? The commands do come from BSD or GNU. But the filesystem not, and those smarties did not adapt the commands to the filesystem. So if you cp a file you cp just the data losing the extended attributes. mv should behave likewise too. There are a couple of utilities that fix this in the development stuff. I never used them as I use my iMac as a Unix box and I don't care of the other file forks (btw does someone know a free utility to repartition the disk to make place to an healy Debian GNU/Linux ?). -- /\ ___ /___/\_|_|\_|__|___Gian Uberto Lauri_____ //--\| | \| | Integralista GNUslamico \/ e coltivatore diretto di Software _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
