Hello!

I have a file named

        RGB äöüæÆÜÖÄ.txt

it gets displayed as

The ominous capital C with lowered diaeresis is described as:

        character: O (79, #o117, #x4f)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
       code point: 0x4F
           syntax: w    which means: word

category: a:ASCII graphic characters 32-126 (ISO646 IRV:1983 [4/0]) l:Latin

                   r:Japanese roman
      buffer code: #x4F
        file code: #x4F (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
          display: by this font (glyph code)

x:-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60- iso10646-1 (#x4F)

Character code properties: customize what to show
  name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O
  general-category: Lu (Letter, Uppercase)

The month name März in a file's date is displayed correctly as Mär. Mac OS X 10.4.11, same effect in HFS+ and UFS file systems. Same for ´, `, ^, and ~ accents.

Emacs.FontBackend:      x
