I think I accidentally reproduced this when posting on another vim_use thread whose subject is something like 'printing with UTF-8 characters from Windows'. What happened was that I replied to the OP in mutt, but before I hit 'y' to send the message, I thought of something I wanted to correct or add, hit 'e' to edit, and was confronted by an absolute mess where my non-ASCII stuff was concerned. I checked mutt's idea of the encoding and it said something like 'text/plain, 7bit, iso-8859-1'. After twiddling a bit, I managed to convince Vim to convert my message back to UTF-8, wrote it to a temp file, started over and copied the temp file back into my reply and this time when I got to the compose/send screen in mutt, the message was correctly reported as 'text/plain, 8bit, UTF-8. Since the thread was about someone experiencing problems with encodings, what I assume is that I did change something manually, while replying, possibly I did a 'set fenc=latin1, or possibly cp1252.. don't remember exactly, and forgot to set it back to UTF-8 before posting. On the other hand, since I had no reason to do anything like this with my other garbled message, it looks like there may be some form of miscommunication between mutt and Vim at some point or other. I assume that my locale, which is set to UTF-8, is used by default when mutt decodes the message I am responding to, and that iconv is used to convert the message before it is passed on to Vim, and that mutt keeps track of this pending my :wq. When I finish editing, mutt creates the content header, adjusting it to reflect whatever change I may have made while editing. Just wondering if anything in the above speculations might be confirmed by something you might remember happened at the time you posted the message where your footnote superscripts got messed up? At this point, I'm not sure looking at the code would help, unless we manage to determine a pattern and are able to reproduce. Thanks, CJ -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
