'encoding' applies to file contents (after conversion by 'fileencoding'
as set by 'fileencodings' or ++enc when reading), but it also applies
(after 'termencoding') to what you type at the command-line and (after
":scriptencoding") to what is read from a sourced script. It's always
better to set 'encoding' to a superset of everything you might be using
in your Vim session.
Best regards,
Tony.

from a recent statement he made comparing New York Mayor Ed Koch to
Nazi Martin Bormann. A spokesman from the Bormann estate said they are
weighing the odds of a slander suit. Mayor Koch could naturally be
reached for comment, but we chose not to listen."
