I just installed emacs 30.1 and then prelude on windows 11.
I used the instructions to install prelude (adapting the symbolic link to the powershell-7 equivalent):
PS> git clone https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude.git C:\projects\prelude
PS> New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path "$HOME\.emacs.d" -Target "C:\projects\prelude"
When I do a C-x d ~/<RET>, it gives me my home directory (the same directory where .emacs.d/ is a symbolic link to where I cloned prelude, C:\projects\prelude).
I then launch emacs, it does its update, installing a bunch of stuff from prelude. When I open the scratch buffer, however, it complains about the back-tick apostrophe of the default comment inside the scratch buffer ( I didn't type it, of course). Here's a screenshot:
It seems to want me to specify, "UTF-8" in the 3rd buffer below. I do that, but then when I type any character in the scratch buffer, it gives the same error.
Not sure where to start to resolve this problem. It doesn't happen if I don't install prelude, or if I launch emacs with emacs -q.
How can I troubleshoot this? I am a novice at emacs and don't really know much about char encoding issues.
Thanks!
