I think I understand now. You mean if dired uses UTF8, and file systemcoding is Latin-1, Why would Dired use UTF8 if the file name encoding is Latin-1? Is this because the user set up perverse settings? Or is there some natural, normal set of options for which this would occur?
The situiation I have is that there are directories with file names in different encodings. Latin-1 is most frequent, which is why I say file name encoding is latin-1. But some directories contain other encodings, UTF-8 among them. Some of these are on network file systems, so I have no control over them. But I would like to be able to view them in Emacs. I guess UTF-8 will win out in the end, but there are a lot of old systems around. Jan D.
