xemacs nomule

[Andreas Goesele <Goesele@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I'm using XEmacs 21.4 (patch 17) *nomule* and would like to use
w3m-el. (XEmacs-Mule isn't an option as it uses too much of memory for
my machine.)

But I need to visit pages which either use utf-8 or some mixture of
charsets for representing letters contained in latin-1 (iso-8859-1) or
iso-8859-15.

So far I used w3m directly in an x-terminal (KDE konsole with
ISO-8859-15 as charmap) and w3m represents all letters correctly.

Is it possible to configure w3m-el / w3m in a way so as to also
represent all those letters correctly in XEmacs nomule?

Examples:

* de.wikipedia.org

  I can't even visit this page as w3m-el gives the error message: "No
  such coding system: utf-8"

* www.spiegel.de

  German Umlauts are partly represented correctly, partly they are
  substituted by a question mark. (To be precise: The same German
  Umlauts might be represented correctly or substituted!)

* www.hfph.mwn.de

  The site uses utf-8, under w3m-el German Umlauts are shown as
  strange combination of letters and signs. (Like "^[$BC<^[(B" for
  "ü".)

As I already said, all those pages are shown correctly by w3m in a
xterminal with charset iso-8859-15.

My relevant configuration for w3m:

Charset Settings

w3m-el I tested with the default configuration and with:

    (setq w3m-coding-system 'utf-8
          w3m-file-coding-system 'utf-8
          w3m-file-name-coding-system 'utf-8
          w3m-input-coding-system 'utf-8
          w3m-output-coding-system 'utf-8
          w3m-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)

(I can't access anything and can't even exit XEmacs)

And:

    (setq w3m-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
          w3m-file-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
          w3m-file-name-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
          w3m-input-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
          w3m-output-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
          w3m-terminal-coding-system 'iso-8859-1)

(Doesn't help.)

Any help would be apreciated!
