- This file provides improved Unicode functionality. It defines
- functions unify-8859-on-encoding-mode and
- unify-8859-on-decoding-mode which unify the Latin-N charsets.
- Without unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, composing a Latin-9 reply
- to a Latin-1 posting, say, will produce a multipart posting (a
- Latin-1 part and a Latin-9 part), or perhaps UTF-8. With
- unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, the outgoing posting can be all
- Latin-1 or all Latin-9 in most cases.
-
- It is harmless to turn on unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, but
- unify-8859-on-decoding-mode may unexpectedly change files in
- certain situations. (If the file contains different Latin-N
- charsets which should not be unified.)
-
- This is part of Emacs 21.3 and later, which also turns on
- unify-8859-on-encoding-mode by default.
