Problems with international characters in menus on Mac OSX
This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation, not to your local site managers! Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your bug report will be posted to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list and possibly to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: If I add a menu to the menu bar (or menu items to a menu) containing international characters (for instance any of the swedish characters 'å', 'ä' and 'ö') they will not show up correctly. For instance 'å' shows as  'ä' shows as '‰' 'ö' shows as '^' 'Å' shows as '≈' In other parts of the Emacs window swedish characters shows correctly (buffers, status bar and mini buffer). In earlier versions (21 and earlier) having international characters in menus caused Emacs to crash when any menu was selected. Fortunately Emacs does not crash any longer, but still the wrong characters are shown in the menus.

It seems that this is a problem specific to
powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0. On GNU/Linux with X Window
System, for instance, the following code works well;
i.e. clicking "Test" in menu bar shows "å ä ö Å" correctly
(in latin-1 language environment).
(define-key global-map [menu-bar test]
(cons "Test" test-menu))
("Test" keymap "Test")
(define-key test-menu [test-insert]
'(menu-item "å ä ö Å" (lambda () (interactive) (insert "å ä ö Å"

Ah, yes, I forgot to paste that part. And also I mis-pasted
unnecessary part ("Test" keymap "Test") which is the return
value of the above define-key. To summarize, what I tested
is this code:
(defvar test-menu (make-sparse-keymap "Test"))
(define-key global-map [menu-bar test]
(cons "Test" test-menu))
(define-key test-menu [test-insert]
'(menu-item "å ä ö Å" (lambda () (interactive) (insert "å ä ö Å"

I have no idea.

It also works on Mac OS X/Carbon. (I suppose you have (setq test-menu
(make-sparse-keymap "Test")) before the first expression.) Maybe
specific to Aquamacs 0.9.6?
