(I would prefer it that this were possible.) Just look at the file `xdisp.c' in the scr directory, lines 153 and up. 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.
