Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to select a given range of characters.

Say I want to select characters 10-20.  The following

10gov20go

will do the trick for 8 bit encoded files.  The question is: how can I
make this work for all encodings (i.e. where 1 character != 1 byte)?

I suppose you could (roughly)

:set virtualedit+=onemore,whichwrap+=s
gg010<Space>v20<Space>

Not very elegant, though, and I bet it's slow once the numbers get big.
There's probably a better way.

Ben.
