Re: accent problem replying mails [SOLVED]
thanks :) I have solved the problem. The problem was that I was moving from another computer and I had imported all home. In the old machine the locale was: lang=es...@euro LANGUAGE=es_ES:es:en_GB:en LC_CTYPE="es...@euro" LC_NUMERIC="es...@euro" LC_TIME="es...@euro" LC_COLLATE="es...@euro" LC_MONETARY="es...@euro" LC_MESSAGES="es...@euro" LC_PAPER="es...@euro" LC_NAME="es...@euro" LC_ADDRESS="es...@euro" LC_TELEPHONE="es...@euro" LC_MEASUREMENT="es...@euro" LC_IDENTIFICATION="es...@euro" lc_all=es...@euro and it worked perfect. I don't know why in debian when you chosse a locale (in dpkg-reconfigure locales) it set LC_ALL to es...@euro if it is incorrect but this question is for others lists. But in the new computer I have set my locale to: $ locale LANG=ca_ES.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=ca:es:en LC_CTYPE="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_TIME="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_NAME="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="ca_ES.UTF-8" LC_ALL= well when I was in mutt the charset is utf-8: if I execute :set &charset ?charset charset=utf-8 but when I reply an email vim was in iso-8859-15 :set fenc fileencodiong=iso-8850-15 I didn't want that. I fixed the fileencondig options that vim can use utf8 with: set fileencodings=utf-8 and reply the email again. Now vim give me an error in the line 13! It is in the signature!! The signature file was imported from the old system and it was saved in iso-8859-15, when vim start to reply an email it detect the iso-8859-15 format of signature and it create a iso-8859-15 file for the reply and the characters of original email where bad intepreted. I have saved the .signature file with utf-8 and I have set the fileencodings of .vimrc set fileencodings=utf-8,iso-8859-15,ucs-bom,cp950,gb18030,default,latin1 with that seems that interpret the iso-8850-15 for the old files and the utf-8 for the new ones Thanks to all :) Roger On Fri, Apr 3, 2009 at 4:41 PM, Kyle Wheeler wrote: > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Friday, April 3 at 09:24 AM, quoth Roger Casaponsa: >>letter in the original mail -->> letter when editing a reply >>ó -->> ó >>ò -->> ò >>à -->> "à " (with a space) >>' -->> â<80><99> > > H.
