This is but a taste of the pain and suffering you will experience when you use |
| 10 |
emacs. Just use vim already ;) |

Seriously though...I am not familiar with emacs but I think your problem may |
| 13 |
be solved in one of two ways |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1. Configure emacs to use us-ascii as the default charset (no idea how). |
| 16 |
2. Configure your console to use a unicode charset (see [1]) |

Just taking a shot in the dark here... |
