is there a way to get them displayed/processed well?
Figure out what encoding the text is supposed to be in, make sure your
'encoding' option can represent all the desired characters, and save/load the
file in the correct 'fileencoding'.
:help 'encoding'
:help 'fileencoding'
:help 'fileencodings'

Yes, ping, it looks like your file is in UTF-8 but your Vim is
interpreting it in Latin1 (and by Latin1 I mean as defined by ISO under
standard ISO-8859-1, not the similar but just ever so slightly different
encoding called Windows-1252, or on Windows "code page 1252" and which
on Microsoft machines is often confused with Latin1):
Encoding display (hex) (description)
Latin1 â 0xE2 small Latin letter a with circumflex
<80> 0x80 <control>
<99> 0x99 <control>
UTF-8 ’ OxE2 0x80 0x99 U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
N.B. The two <control> characters are nonprinting (they have no display
equivalent in Latin1). They might be regarded as Alt-Ctrl-@ and
Alt-Ctrl-Y respectively.
So I recommend the same readings as Ben already did, especially the last
one.
Best regards,
Tony.
