In GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2002-09-18 on tempus
configured using `configure i386-redhat-linux --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr
--bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share
--includedir=/usr/include --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/libexec
--localstatedir=/var --sharedstatedir=/usr/com --mandir=/usr/share/man
--infodir=/usr/share/info --with-gcc --with-pop --with-sound'
Important settings:
value of $LC_ALL: nil
value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
value of $LC_CTYPE: sv_SE.ISO8859-1
value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
value of $LC_TIME: nil
value of $LANG: en_US.iso885915
locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1
default-enable-multibyte-characters: t
And also in 21.2.95.
1. emacs -q
2. C-x b 1 RET C-x 8 " a RET
C-x b 2 RET C-x 8 " o RET
(these two buffers have latin-1 characters)
3. M-x ediff-merge-buffers RET 1 RET 2 RET
4. w d [which runs ediff-save-buffer]
I get a question "File to save in: ~/" and answer that.
Result:
I get a buffer *Warning* with
These default coding systems were tried:
iso-latin-1
However, none of them safely encodes the target text.
Select one of the following safe coding systems:
utf-8 raw-text emacs-mule no-conversion
and a question about what coding system I want to use.
Expected result:
I expected it to save with iso-latin-1 since there are no
other characters in the buffers "1" and "2".
Additional comments:
At that moment *ediff-diff* has \201's in front of the two
latin-1 characters.
