Why not? If XEmacs doesn't support utf-8 at all, then the problem lies not with the method of applying the decoding (the change being discussed), but with the choice of coding system used by default. If XEmacs _does_ support uft-8, then why can't it handle a "utf-8" coding: tag (or doesn't XEmacs support coding: tags...)? -Miles -- Erudition, n. Dust shaken out of a book into an empty skull.
