That's right!
I suppose I should put this in site-start.el to have the right
profile loaded:
(codepage-setup 437)
(setq locale-coding-system 'cp437)
But, as a first test, I still have:
(codepage-setup 437)
cp437
(decode-coding-string
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\Propri\202taire"
'cp437)
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\PropriƩtaire"
(setq locale-coding-system 'cp437)
cp437
(getenv "HOME")
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\Propri\202taire"
