Hi,

Following the suggestion I had had on this newsgroup I have installed
AucTeX which I use with Gnu Emacs 20.3 to help me write my Plain
TeX/LaTeX document.  However, there is something very annoying that
occurs when I write French documents, upon the compilation of the TeX
files the words which includes French character are messed up in this
pattern:

�cole ---> � cole
re�u  ---> re� u
�l�ve ---> � l� ve

In other words, words will be split right after the French
character.  This is *very* annoying as I have to correct the document
each time after.  If I can't fix this I will have to drop AucTeX, I
would rather like to be able to fix this behavior!

Thanks for any help on this.

DM
