I had to try it out to determine what you meant, but I reproduced the problem in Windows 7 64-bit, running Vim 7.3.822. Better problem description: With text: one combinations two combinations three Executing :%s#combinations#œ̄ṣ́#g directly, will correctly replace the text with: one œ̄ṣ́ two œ̄ṣ́ three But saving "%s#combinations#œ̄ṣ́#g" to register w, and then executing with :@w, results in: one œṣ two œṣ three Note the lack of combining characters in the resulting text. At this point, :reg w shows: --- Registers --- "w %s#combinations#œ̄ṣ́#g So the register value was set properly, this seems like a problem in Vim. This all happens with gvim -N -u NONE -i NONE, after only setting encoding to utf-8 and setting an appropriate font. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
