[Erc-help] UTF-8 in server communication?

[Ivo T. <iv...@o2...>]

Hi,

Is it possible to control the way emacs (or ERC) sends out special
characters?  If I insert a Euro sign, for example, with Compose C =;
it will show up on a channel as `ESC - b € ESC - A'.

Needless to say, this is very annoying to people, so I would rather
have emacs do this in pure UTF-8.

I have been playing with things like (with mule-ucs):
(setq default-enable-multibyte-characters t)
and
(setq default-process-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)
but it doesn't change much.

TIA for any hints..
