Much more confused than before. I get why I'd want to use unicode, but the instructions on how to do that were outdated or for a setup other than mine and they threw me off real quickly. I also spent some time looking through the Gentoo Wiki and found that there's a grand total of one article about emacs. Not much help. I'll keep trying though. -- http://lordsauronthegreat.googlepages.com/
