Hello from New France,

I have been using emacs for decades and in a previous version emacs 22
the function capitalize word used to work properly with the European
character set ISO-8859-1

You have:

   default enable-multibyte-characters: nil

which is deprecated and means that Emacs should treat your files as
containing bytes rather than chars, so it can't do a good job putting
those bytes in upper or lower case since it doesn't know what they're
meant to represent.

I.e. please fix your .emacs so as not to set the default
enable-multibyte-characters to nil.

Thanks !

Using (toggle-enable-multibyte-characters nil) solves the problem but
brings in another issue, namely the compatibilityu of all my previous
documents written in unibyte ISO-8859-1. ... but this is another issue.
