Hi, I have one very strange problem in Aquamacs 0.9.7: I have a directory with Umlauts in the name, such as "Eine Übung", in it a (Common) Lisp file. I load the file in Aquamacs, I start SLIME, I try to slime-compile the file (C-c C-k). Emacs complains: Coding system iso-latin-1-unix not suitable for "000067(:emacs-rex (swank:compile-file-for-emacs "/Users/ulli/Desktop/LESD-Übung/uebung4-3.lisp" t) nil t 4)
From then on I can't even edit the file in the Lisp file's buffer (I get the same error message every time).
Not sure if this is a SLIME error, or an Emacs error, but I suspect it's SLIME.
I only use SLIME 1.2.1 (which seems the last stable one?), but maybe you can reproduce the error, or tell me if it's fixed in a newer version.

No, this isn't fixed.
As a quick workaround you can probably set slime-translate-to-lisp-filename-function to string-make-unibyte or something more sophisticated that uses encode-coding-string.
You could also figure out why slime-safe-encoding-p returns nil for your filename, whether that's correct, and maybe fix it.
(Of course, the easiest is not to use umlauts in filenames, but I guess this kind of pragmatism isn't what Apple weenies would call a "solution".)
Helmut.
