Fantastic! But... when I save and close the buffer and then open it up
again, in place of the beautiful and correct characters, there are
little boxes.
I tried using ‘C-x C-m c utf-8 RET’ prior to 'C-x C-f filename'... but
no joy. Same no-go with 'C-x C-m c mule-utf-8 RET'.
The fact that these non-English characters display properly in the
buffer initially tells me that I have the requisite fonts installed. So
what little connection is emacs not making (and how do I tell it to make
that connection)?
Thanks, all.
