[slime-devel] Slime and Unicode

[Harald Hanche-Olsen]

+ Denys Rtveliashvili <rtvd at mail.ru>:

| I have tried the latest version of Slime from CVS and found that it does 
| not like Unicode. [...]
| 
| However, when I changed "slime.el" a bit by adding utf-8-unix
| 
|     (defvar slime-net-coding-system
|       (find-if 'slime-find-coding-system
|                '(utf-8-unix iso-latin-1-unix iso-8859-1-unix binary))
|       "*Coding system used for network connections.
|     See also `slime-net-valid-coding-systems'.")
| 
| it started to work just fine.

The recommended method is not to change slime.el, but to put

  (setq slime-net-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)

in your .emacs.
