I did it. It works. Thank you.
However, Kile is still uneasy with the latin1/unicode transition.
If you start a new document by means of the Wizard (Assistant), your=20
only choices for the codepage are iso8859-1, iso8859-15 (latin), some=20
old DOS codepages et other systems, but not utf8. Whatever choice you=20
make, the internal coding remains UTF8 until you click on the right=20
button (bottom left).
BTW, kile writes \input[latin1]{inputenc}, which is wrong. Should be=20
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}.

Hopefully the developers will correct this (quite easy I suppose).
