Hi Tom, If you just have one long-running Emacs then can't that be in the UTF-8 locale? Or is your C-needing ls(1) run from inside that?
Have Emacs highlight non-ASCII characters in that mode wherever they come from, e.g. paste from web browser? Have a function that maps the common ones to ASCII, perhaps using recode(1)? Filter the buffer when writing the file, erroring if it can't be written? Then you can send valid US-ASCII emails. -- Cheers, Ralph. https://plus.google.com/+RalphCorderoy _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
