I forget to say : I'm not sure it's primarily indented to be used for programming language. A lot of people use Emacs to edit HTML document, TeX presentation, XML structured news papers, and so on, and me, I came to it with literate programming in mind, and literate programming make heavy use of natural language text. And what about comments in program source any way ? While it's true Emacs is an heavily scriptable editor, this does not implies its sole purpose is to be used for this, not this implies it is primarily to be used with Latin language (by the way, the same trouble comes with TeX and derivatives, which fails to properly handle non-latin languages).GNU Emacs is primarily an editor for programming languages.
--No-no, this isn't an oops ...or I hope (TM) - Don't blame me... I'm just not lucky
