There are a few things that are required for Vim to support multibyte characters. NOTE: I do not use multibyte support in Vim, so if anyone else wants to chime in that would be terrific. The OutlookVim.bas file checks a few things in Vim: 1. Does your Vim support multibyte (test with :echo has("multi_byte") )? 2. Is a BOMB enabled (:set bomb, tested with :echo &bomb == 1) 3. Does the fileencodings support UTF8 ( tested with :echo match(&fileencodings, '\<ucs-bom\|utf\>') )? If so, it will enable unicode format in the file which Outlook writes for Vim to edit. So, you can do this simple test. 1. Start Vim 2. :set bomb 3. :set filecodings=utf-8 4. :set encoding=utf-8 5. Make sure the guifont you are using supports the character sets you are displaying. 6. From Outlook, hit the Edit in Vim button again and see what happens. I have the following in my .vimrc when I want to play with multibyte: if has("gui_running") if has("multi_byte") set encoding=utf-8 setglobal fileencoding=utf-8 set bomb set termencoding=iso-8859-15 set fileencodings=iso-8859-15,iso-8859-3,ucs-bom,utf-8,utf-16 " Enable Unicode (for Chinese and so on) " Downloaded from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dejavu/ if filereadable(expand('$SystemRoot').'/fonts/DejaVuSansMono.ttf') " If running on drastically different resolution monitors " this will set the font based which screen you are " currently on. This assumes the monitor above you has " a higher resolution. let fontsize = (getwinposx()<0 ? '11' : '11') " For normal 11 point font " set guifont=Bitstream_Vera_Sans_Mono:h11:cANSI " For bold 11 point font " echomsg 'fontsize:'.fontsize.' posx:'.getwinposx() exec 'set guifont=DejaVu_Sans_Mono:h'.fontsize.':cANSI' endif else echoerr "Sorry, this version of (g)vim was not compiled with +multi_byte" endif else echoerr "console Vim will not display UTF-8 properly" endif HTH, David -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
