The etc/NEWS file says:
** UTF-16 coding systems are available, encoding the same characters
as mule-utf-8. Coding system `utf-16-le-dos' is useful as the value
of `selection-coding-system' in MS Windows, allowing you to paste
multilingual text from the clipboard. Set it interactively with
C-x RET x or in .emacs with `(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-16-le-dos)'.
I have tried using
(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-16-le-dos)
but I only end up getting an error when I save files.
