Subject: coding-system difficulties

Message-ID: <m33cq5h4g4.fsf@swagbelly.net> (raw)

Hi,

I've never really totally understood coding-system issues.  Here's a
recurring problem:

Sometimes I get email in non-English characters: sometimes Gnus shows
a readable version, sometimes not (even though both cases sometimes
arise with the same people).  But the following little sequence lets
me read:

C-x h
M-w
C-x C-f ~/tmp/weird_mail.txt RET
C-y
C-x C-s
C-x C-v RET


I'm not sure why this behaves differently, or how to proceed properly:
but I'm sure that it's not by binding this keyboard macro to `C-f'. :)
