@end defvar
+ @defvar auto-coding-functions
+ This variable holds a list of functions that try to determine a
+ coding system for a file based on its undecoded contents.
+
+ Each function in this list should be written to look at text in the
+ current buffer, but should not modify it in any way. The buffer will
+ contain undecoded text of parts of the file. Each function should
+ take one argument, @var{size}, which tells it how many characters to
+ look at, starting from point. If the function succeeds in determining
+ a coding system for the file, it should return that coding system.
+ Otherwise, it should return @code{nil}.
+
+ If a file has a @samp{coding:} tag, that takes precedence, so these
+ functions won't be called.
+ @end defvar
+
@defun find-operation-coding-system operation &rest arguments
This function returns the coding system to use (by default) for

replace
+ This function decodes the text from @var{from} to @var{to} as if
+ it were being read from file @var{filename} using @code{insert-file-contents}
+ using the rest of the arguments provided.
+
+ The normal way to use this function is after reading text from a file
+ without decoding, if you decide you would rather have decoded it.
+ Instead of deleting the text and reading it again, this time with
+ decoding, you can call this function.

@end defvar
+ @defun locale-info item
+ This function returns locale data @var{item} for the current POSIX
+ locale, if available. @var{item} should be one of these symbols:
+
+ @table @code
+ @item codeset
+ Return the character set as a string (locale item @code{CODESET}).
+
+ @item days
+ Return a 7-element vector of day names (locale items
+ @code{DAY_1} through @code{DAY_7});
+
+ @item months
+ Return a 12-element vector of month names (locale items @code{MON_1}
+ through @code{MON_12}).
+
+ @item paper
+ Return a list @code{(@var{width} @var{height})} for the default paper
+ size measured in milimeters (locale items @code{PAPER_WIDTH} and
+ @code{PAPER_HEIGHT}).
+ @end table
+
+ If the system can't provide the requested information, or if
+ @var{item} is not one of those symbols, the value is @code{nil}. All
+ strings in the return value are decoded using
+ @code{locale-coding-system}. @xref{Locales,,, libc, GNU Libc Manual},
+ for more information about locales and locale items.
