Since there are two bytes being displayed I'm going to guess you're editing a UTF-8 encoded file with your encoding set to the default 8- bit encoding for your system (probably latin1). You will need to set at least two options to let this work correctly: 'encoding' 'fileencodings' See the help for each, and also our current featured tip on the wiki, http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Working_with_Unicode -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
