#38040: emacs-mac-app and coding system -------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: angelo.graziosi@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Keywords: utf-8, iso-latin1 | Port: emacs-mac-app -------------------------------+-------------------------------- I have installed emacs-mac-app @3.92 with {{{ sudo port -s install emacs-mac-app }}} but perhaps there is a problem with the coding system... 1) In the attached archive there is a file, la_bibliografia.tex.orig, which is shown coded in utf8 with: Aquamacs, emacs-app (Macports) on MAC OS X. The same occurs on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Fedora) and GTK Emacs, and on Cygwin with GTK Emacs. 2) Instead with emacs-mac-app (Macports) it is shown coded iso-latin1 ("1" in the mode line). What is expected and right for me is the case 1): utf-8, "U" in the mode line. That file contains the (opened) accented character "a" (line 127, column 14) and I can see this character with "less", "cat" and the Emacs distributions as described in 1). Anyway, emacs-mac-app shows it as iso-latin1 and as a capital "A" followed by an underscore (_), with a tilde (~) over. If I convert it in utf8 by means of C-x RET f utf-8 RET, I got the other file, la_bibliografia.tex .emacs-mac-app, in the attached archive, and emacs-mac-app shows it coded utf8 ("U" in the mode line) but it displays the file with the same result for what regards the accented character (a capital A with...) :-( emacs-mac-app shows this strange behavior ONLY when I start it with the link I find in Launchpad. Instead if I use {{{ $ /Applications/MacPorts/EmacsMac.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs & }}} I got the same results described in 1), i.e. the right utf-8 coding and the right displayed accented character... Removing .emacs.d or starting from command line adding "-Q" does not change the above conclusions.
