Hi Thomas,

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping that would work, but no luck so far:

$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 vile
Cannot setup translation from  to UTF-8

It seems odd that vl_narrow_enc.encoding is *empty* in the error message
above.

For locale, I see the same as you:

$ locale -a | wc -l
     203

Output of locale:

$ locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

However, as I showed above, even explicitly setting LC_ALL has no effect:

$ export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
$ locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"

$ vile
Cannot setup translation from  to UTF-8
