Yup, you are right. I just discovered another post in this newsgroup.
This seems to have worked:
M-x prefer-coding-system RET utf-8 RET
You can set in .emacs for example:
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
(modify-coding-system-alist 'process "\\*shell\\*\\'" 'utf-8)
and exceptions like these:
(setq file-coding-system-alist
(append
'(("\\.tex\\'" iso-latin-9-unix . iso-latin-9-unix))
; '(("\\.el\\'" iso-latin-9-unix . iso-latin-9-unix))
file-coding-system-alist))
