I have a new idea. We could establish the convention that you can pass a buffer to find-operation-coding-system instead of a file name, for the `insert-file-contents' operation. And elements of Vfile_coding_system_alist could have symbols instead of regexps; the symbol would match the buffer's major mode.
Vfile_coding_system_alist elements that have regexps would get the buffer-file-name from the buffer, and match against it. Or perhaps in this case they should never match. I am not sure which choice is better. I think that provides 100% clean way to fix it. Can you try implementing this method? _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
