C:\> emacsclient --server-file=whatever --eval "(nonexistent)"
*ERROR*: Symbol’s function definition is VOID: nonexistent
That's obviously UTF-8; if I change my console's codepage to 65001
*ERROR*: Symbol’s function definition is VOID: nonexistent
But that's not what puzzles me. What I don't understand is how that message is defined in data.c using an APOSTROPE (#x27), but emacsclient is receiving a RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK (#x2019).
Where is that change happening?
As an aside, perhaps it would be nice to have a way (a -coding command or whatever) for emacsclient to tell server.el its output coding system...
