Thank you Pete for all of the explanation.
Here is a bit more info and some progress I have made.
1) The machine to which my monitor and keyboard are attached is
running Fedora 7
2) I connect via ssh tunneling to a machine that is running Fedora
5 and open up a gui emacs
The command is
ssh ... "/usr/bin/emacs -fn lucidasanstypewriter-12"
3) In older versions of emacs (when running on various flavors of
UNIX or in Windows) I used
the mule package which has input modes and the polish-slash
mode was such that
/a produced ą, /e produced ę etc
4) On the Federa 7 box, I have enabled the polish keyboard and
thus produce "ogonki" in
any application
5) When I open up firefox on the Fedora 5 box via ssh tuneling I
can produce "ogonki" in the
same way
6) I cannot produce polish characters in emacs on the Fedora 5
machine.
My IT people are going to take away the Fedora 5 machine so this may
be a mute point but I would
like to learn what is going on.
