That is the right way. > Afterwards, file (the command) says the same as before. Did I miss > something? Do you have a reason to believe `file' more than you believe Emacs? That is, is it possible that `file' lies? Can you find a character in the file after translation that is not Latin-1, and if you can, what is that character? One possibility is that you have in that file a character whose code is outside the valid range of Latin-1 codepoints. But that's a wild guess, you need to find such a character and type "C-u C-x =" with the cursor on it, to see what it is. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
