For UTF-16 with signature, I agree, but UTF-8 could sometimes match a Latin-1 file. For instance, "4×½=2" encoded in Latin-1 is valid as a UTF-8 string. A friend of mine suggested "Try our new exclusive WAZA® for just $0.02!" which is even meaningful in both cases. -- Gaëtan LEURENT _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
