But I bet it does make the global value non-nil in buffers where you
don't use x-symbol at all, right?
Yes and no. I had this behavior already with setq, setq-default did not
change anything.
I took a quick look at the x-symbol code that deals with the buffer-
local setting. I don't understand it, except that there are a lot of
places where x-symbol-8bits gets set to computed values. So I suppose
the problem is that x-symbol-8bits is overruling your setting.
Apparently you can't customize or set it via local variables; you have
to do something tricky.
Right it seems that way. Since I am most likely _The Last of the
Mohicans_ using x-symbol, there is not much point of digging further into
it. Thanks anyhow.
