Will it cope correctly with the soon-to-land Unicode internals of the ben-mule branch of XEmacs, with more native support for non-MULE internal encodings? Does it cope with Emacs of those varieties? Also, how does it interact with the Latin Unity package for XEmacs and with the unity packages for Emacs21? >> and what benefits it provides? > > AFAIK (please correct me if it's wrong), it unifies iso-8859-* > charset's if possible. Is this only within the scope of Gnus message buffers, Gnus message and display buffers or universally?
