Suppose I were using a font that defined bit patters for all its characters, not just the visible ascii characters. How could I tell GNU Emacs 18.51 to display these patterns instead of the usual caret-uppercase pair (the low boys) or escaped octal triplets (the high boys)? (I would prefer it that this were possible.) Regards, [Ag]

I managed to have Emacs display umlauts and the like on the X display by changing this file. The problem is that you don't always want this behaviour (at least other people won't), so you probably create a user-settable LISP variable to control this. -- Simon Leinen.

You also have to modify indent.c to move cursor to a correct column, don't you? --- handa@etl.go.jp
