24.3; Messages from (error "...") with UTF-8 chars are printed wrongly in Emacs Lisp scripts |
Date: |

Hello.
In a script, when (error "...") instruction is executed with some UTF-8
characters in its text, the message is not printed correctly.
LANG environment variable is set to en_US.UTF-8 for all programs, my terminal is
x11-terms/rxvt-unicode with adequate UTF-8 support, Emacs version is GNU Emacs
24.3.1.
Examples (all of them are with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in environment):
$ cat error.el
(message "hello привет")
(message "привет hello")
(error "hello привет")
$ emacs --script error.el
hello привет
привет hello
hello address@hidden
But:
$ emacs -nw --eval '(error "hello привет")'
^^^ successfully prints "hello привет" in minibuffer.
This address@hidden is not some trash. Created a small table showing its
origins (It
is ``echo hello привет | print-bits | cat -t'' vs. ``echo hello привет |
high-bits-01 | print-bits | cat -t''):
