Thank you all very much for your help. With the given information and the Emacs
ducumentation I have now added the following lines to my .emacs file, which
makes editing exportet registry files less painfull:
(setq file-coding-system-alist
(append '(("\\.reg\\'" . utf-16le-with-signature))
file-coding-system-alist))
Kind regards,
Markus
