Thanks Stefan for the responding.
I looked at the init.el file and have the following entry that sets the
locale:
(setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
Is this not enough or am I not using it correctly?
Got these from:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2901541/which-coding-system-should-i-use-in-emacs
(setq utf-translate-cjk-mode nil) ; disable CJK coding/encoding
(Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters)
(set-language-environment 'utf-8)
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8-mac) ; For old Carbon emacs on OS X
only
(setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(unless (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8))
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
Thanks
