Hi Tony
How about putting somewhere 2 screenshots:
- screenshot of Vim with wrong behavior
- screenshot of Vim (or other application) with expected behavior
It would make it simpler to understand the problem.
Cheers

I was just doing that when I found this post: I found out that I can
make both "good" and "bad" behaviour happen in Vim. The same text is
displayed each time; the "points of interest" are the acute accents over
Russian text. (The acute accents over French text, and the "short" sign
over the letter й, are not combining).
1) Good (well, not perfect but almost, see below) behaviour with gvim,
and :set gfn=Courier\ New\ 16 :
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/courier.png -- the display
of non-Italic Cyrillic is perfect, in italic Cyrillic the accents are
too far to the left, at the boundary with the preceding letter; all in
all the result is acceptable.
2) Bad (very bad) with :set gfn=Bitstream\ Vera\ Sans\ Mono\ 16 :
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/bitstream.png : notice
that some spacing letters are overprinted, some are displayed off by one
or more cells sideways of where they ought to be, making the total
length of the display lines to be shorter than normal, with blank
fill-in at the right margin. It seems that every acute accent causes an
overprint between the letter over which it should be and the letter to
its right. The accent itself is displayed above-left of these two
overprinted spacing letters.
3) The same text in Bitstream Vera Sans Mono of a different size (8):
here, the text is displayed correctly except that all accents are
shifted to the right, almost to the boundary between their vowel and the
next character:
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/bitstr8.png - this is
acceptable but not very good; the errors happen in both italic and
non-italic Cyrillic; they are in the opposite direction to those in
Courier New 16 italic.
Best regards,
Tony.
