I have the statement
setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'iso-8859-1
in my startup file, and it seems to work as the variable value can be
shown with ctrl-h v. It has, however, no effect at all. When I open a
new buffer for a non-existing file, it has no associated coding (as
would
be seen in the left corner of the status line), and as soon as I
store the
file, the coding is set to utf-8. I expected that setting the variable
default-buffer-file-coding-system to iso-8859-1 would change this
behaviour.
You could try to add
(prefer-coding-system 'iso-8859-1)
The environment variable LC_CTYPE plays an important role.
Another question, less important: can I change the window size and
the font
used once and for all? At the moment, I change it after the window
has been
opened.
(setq initial-frame-alist
(append (list
'(border-color . "#4e3832")
'(foreground-color . "grey10")
'(background-color . "AliceBlue")
'(active-alpha . 0.875)
'(inactive-alpha . 0.75)
'(font . "fontset-10pt_lucidatypewriter")
'(top . 136) '(left . 666) '(width . 100) '(height . 57)
) initial-frame-alist))
There is also default-frame-alist.
