this is very useful... i know perhaps a bit off topic, but i haven't found any good howtos on this stuff in english. on a sort of related (and also slightly off topic) note, for a while, i was able to make certain accents in my editor (vim) and they seem to display ok in vim; however now i can't seem to create them anymore. my workstations are both freebsd, but the mail machine i'm usually composing messages on is debian linux (i assume it's mostly server side that i'd need to configure this). anyway if i have LANG set to en_US, is there a way to insert an accent (say an accent aigu) in vim? are there any relatively easy to follow docs on this? i think i just need to figure out how my keymaps are setup, but it's a bit more confusing in vi / vim since a lot of meta keys are already bound to something. -- Experience -- a great teacher, but the tutition fees...
