Hello Everyone
How to print è character in gvim. When i do that in french layout,
typing key 7, vim past some phrases ( register buffer? ) to active
window.
It looks like no maping for è character.
How to overcome this difficulty?
Thanks
Sergey
- My fr_BE keyboard has è as 7 without Shift, gvim displays it with no
difficulty.
- You should not change the system locale while gvim is running: the
program won't know about such changes and will probably misinterpret
what you type from then on
- Even if your keyboard hasn't got it, there are several ways to type
the è character in gvim, *provided* that your current 'encoding' and the
'fileencoding' of the current file both support it.
- To know what these settings are:
:verbose set encoding?
:verbose setlocal fileencoding?
Any 'Western' or 'Unicode' encoding supports that letter. Examples
(where case is irrelevant, i.e. UTF-8 and utf-8 are the same charset):
Latin1 aka iso-8859-1
Latin9 aka iso-8859-15
Windows-1252 aka cp1252
UTF-8
UTF-16
UTF-16le
etc.
- Examples of how to type the è character (disregard the spaces, I'm
adding them here for legibility only):
(by digraphs) Ctrl-K e !
(by character code) any one of
Ctrl-V 232
Ctrl-V o 350
Ctrl-V x E8
Ctrl-V u 00E8
(by keymap) using the Accents keymap: `e (with 'iminsert' set to 1 and
'keymap' set to "accents")
All of the above are in Insert mode, and if your Ctrl-V was remapped to
the Paste operation, use Ctrl-Q instead.
See:
:help digraphs
:help i_CTRL-K
:help digraphs-default
:help i_CTRL-V_digit
:help mbyte-keymap
:help 'iminsert'
:help i_CTRL-^
:help c_CTRL-^
Note also that if your keyboard hasn't got the CTRL-^ control character,
or if you don't know how to produce it, you can always use a mapping, e.g.
:map! <F8> <C-^>
:map <F8> :let &imi = !&imi<CR>
(use both, and type the <> codes as less-than, something, greater-than)
Best regards,
Tony.
