Subject: UTF-8 still a problem
Date: Thu, 29 May 2003 13:25:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3fzmyq9js.fsf@h130n1fls31o965.telia.com> (raw)


Emacs 21.2.1
Gnus v0.15 (Oort)

Following the help from Kai in
<84smre8zw7.fsf@lucy.is.informatik.uni-duisburg.de> I have installed
ucs-tables and added the following lines in my .emacs:

(require 'ucs-tables)
(unify-8859-on-encoding-mode 1)

But nothing happens. When I view a UTF-8 encoded post in a newsgroup
it comes out at two byte chars for me, when I follow up to such
message, my follow up will contain the UTF-8 chars quoted and my own
in ISO-8859-1.

That's rather bad. I have gone through .emacs and .gnus and eliminated
all things that does anything with charset I can find, but to no
effect.

I would be very happy if someone could talk me through getting support
for UTF-8 to work. I would not mind to be able to post in it sometimes
myself either, such as when responding to someone who post in UTF-8.
