I have to admit, that I do not understand the concept of processing
the .emacs file at all.

But to replace
  ;-*-unibyte: t;-*-
with 
  ;-*- coding: latin-1 -*-
or 
  ;-*- coding: latin-9 -*-
or
  ;(set-language-environment 'German)
does not work. Only the unibyte:t line works correct.

My basic assuption is of course that Emacs stores files in the same
way as any other text editor, because I edited the file in an other
application, so the .emacs file could stay open while I frequently
exited and started Emacs.
