88838 | 17 ** The Emacs character set is now a superset of Unicode (it has about |
18 four times the code space, which should be plenty). | |

88838 | 20 The internal encoding used for buffers and strings is now |
21 Unicode-based and called `utf-8-emacs'. utf-8-emacs is backwards | |
22 compatible with the UTF-8 encoding of Unicode. The `emacs-mule' | |
23 coding system can still read and write data in the old internal | |
24 encoding. | |

88838 | 26 There are still charsets which contain disjoint sets of characters |
27 where this is necessary or useful, especially for various Far Eastern | |
28 sets which are problematic with Unicode. | |
39738 | 29 |
88838 | 30 Since the internal encoding is also used by default for byte-compiled |
31 files -- i.e. the normal coding system for byte-compiled Lisp files is | |
32 now utf-8-Emacs -- Lisp containing non-ASCII characters which is | |
33 compiled by Emacs 22 can't be read by earlier versions of Emacs. | |
34 Files compiled by Emacs 20 or 21 are loaded correctly as emacs-mule | |
35 (whether or not they contain multibyte characters), which makes | |
36 loading them somewhat slower than Emacs 22-compiled files. Thus it | |
37 may be worth recompiling existing .elc files which don't need to be | |
38 shared with older Emacsen. | |
43159 | 39 |
88838 | 40 ** There are assorted new coding systems/aliases -- see |
41 M-x list-coding-systems. | |

44 See M-x list-character-sets. New charsets can be defined conveniently | |
45 as tables of unicodes. | |
