I have the same problem. When I copy paste text from Firefox into Vim running in a terminal (xfce or xterm at least), I get garbage for diacritics. If I do the same in GVim (gtk2), it works fine. Yet my settings in GVim and Vim (terminal) are identical: :set encoding? encoding=utf-8 :set fileencoding? fileencoding= :set fileencodings=? fileencodings=ucs-bom,utf-8,latin1 I'm not 100% sure, but I think it used to work fine a long time ago. Example to reproduce: 1) go to http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vim in Firefox 2) select with the mouse the first sentence in Firefox which says: "Vim est un éditeur de texte, c’est-à-dire un logiciel permettant la manipulation de fichiers texte." 3) Paste in Vim (terminal) using the mouse (middle click on Linux) 4) observe that it pastes: Vim est un <e9>diteur de texte, c\u2019est-<e0>-dire un logiciel permettant la manipulation de fichiers texte. 5) Do the same with gvim (gtk2) and observe that there is no bug in Gvim I also tried with the Chromium browser (same result). The problem has to do with copy paste which loses the character encoding I think and somehow makes assumes the wrong encoding when pasting. Typing Unicode characters works fine in terminal. Copy paste from gvim into Vim (terminal) works fine. I'm using vim-7.3.806 on xubuntu-12.10, Linux x86_64. Dominique -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
