[ESS] Can ESS support Chinese?

[ronggui]

You are right.It's not a problem of ESS but emacs.

After I start ESS,I set-buffer-process-coding-system to
cn-gb-2312,everything goes well.

Then may I ask how to set this variable so that I need not set it
every time by hand.

emacs 21.3
ess 5.3.0

Thanks.
