Re: [O] how to sanitize org-protocol text ?

[Sander Boer]

Hi Samuel,

thank you for replying.
Yes I am on windows 7, I forgot to mention that. I have not tested this 
behavior on win 8 yet.

winhate.Add("Ah windows, a deep well of sorrow and disappointment 
(maildir on win anyone?).")

Anyway,

selection-coding-system : utf-8
current-language-environment: Dutch
file-name-coding-system: nil
default-file-name-coding-system: utf-8
w32-unicode-filenames: t

I was under the impression that setting all the file codings to unicode 
would remove conding issues, but judging from the amount of posts of Xah 
Lee on the subject I think I should know better.
