I am sorry for beeing imprcise. What I intended with my explanation was
to say that the encoding seems to be all right, since all programms
(except emacs) that work with the characters work correctly.

My problem seems to be a display problem.

The problem is: emacs does not give me the code instead it gives me the
code of the next character. This is 'men 1' for the plural pronoun and 
space for the singular pronoun, i.e.

   character:  (0120707, 41415, 0xa1c7)
     charset: chinese-gb2312 (GB2312 Chinese simplified: ISO-IR-58)
  code point: 67 71
      syntax: word
    category: C:Chinese (Han) characters of 2-byte character sets 
c:Chinese   |:While filling, we can break a line at this character.
buffer code: 0x91 0xC3 0xC7
   file code: 0xE4 0xBB 0xAC (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
        font: -ISAS-Fangsong 
ti-Medium-R-Normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-GB2312.1980-0

   character: SPC (040, 32, 0x20)
     charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
  code point: 32
      syntax: whitespace
    category: a:ASCII   l:Latin
buffer code: 0x20
   file code: 0x20 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
        font: -Adobe-Courier-Bold-R-Normal--14-140-75-75-M-90-ISO8859-1


Does this information help?

Best wishes and thanks
