If I visit `foo' literally, I see that there is _already_ a \201 there. -- François Pinard mailto:pinard@iro.umontreal.ca Join the free Translation Project! http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I'll try to find out how that happens. You know, in case it reassures you (but it frightens me :-), those \201 are multiplying like Martians ever since I started to use Mule with Emacs, and not specifically with 20.3.8. And, like the Martians of the story[1], nobody seems to be able to get rid of them. In one chapter, Richard Stallman secretly works in his basement to a solution that will eradicate them. In another chapter, Handa-san (Ken'ichi) does the same with another invention. In yet another effort, Lars Ingebrigtsen feels he is the genious that would, at last, get rid of the infestation. The same as in the story, their tries are, by pure coincidence, all scheduled to happen on the very same day. As you expect, that day, all those \201 will suddenly go away. Each of our three clever men will think he is the one that saved the situation. But us, `ding' readers, will know that no reason holds, and it might just be yet another coincidence that \201 disappeared that day. -------------------- [1] "Martians, go home!" -- François Pinard mailto:pinard@iro.umontreal.ca Join the free Translation Project! http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Well, they weren't there with 0.80 and they appeared with 0.83 (same Emacs version), so it seems that Gnus is the cause of this. kai -- Abort this operation?

The problem was that gnus-inews-do-gcc didn't do mml/character encoding.
