Even in vim? They shouldn't. If they are, your vim is broken or misconfigured. With cat and other "dumb" tools this is to be expected, of course, and then you have little choice except changing the terminal character encoding to match your files, since you can't change the locale (except to C, which should be iso-8859-1 and might even work to make mutt speak iso-8859-1). -- Jussi Peltola
