I should add that this is how I create most all files in emacs.
Occasionally I'll use vi(m) to create or edit a file and subsequently
edit it using emacs. Less occasionally I'll use "cat > filename" to
create a file, or "[some (series of) command(s)] > filename" and then
pull it into emacs. And, as mentioned earlier, sometimes I'll open a
file (C-x C-f) and yank the clipboard contents into it. It seems you're
implying that different means of creating a file will force emacs' use
of different character encodings, yes? (Actually, I've encountered many
times that emacs, after C-x C-s, tells me to select some other encoding
system... which I almost never want to do.)
tnx
