I don't think it works for XEmacs. I've got a MULE-aware XEmacs
21.4.6 and while it asks if I want to set the local variables in the
-*- line, I still see "Raw" in the modeline, and I see the following
letters in print string (with funny little lines above the
characters): iAOOEI. See attached capture. That doesn't seem right,
does it?
