I am having a problem with Vim line returns being interpreted as
end of paragraph markers in Scribus. Unicode may solve this
problem. What string do I need in .vimrc to switch to unicode?

Linux, the same or sometimes a little worse on
Windows and often have problems or late release
dates or both for OS X. When you choose an OS
this is what you accept.
I only tar and untar files using the tools with
those names. I never used vim or gvim for
manipulating tar files, nor
COBOL is position sensitive. I just wasted some
time editing a program that compiled OK
yesterday.
Turns out that the PROCEDURE DIVISION header had
be moved to the right because of a
legitimate change that I had made to the line
above.
Can I get rid of smart tabs and how do I do it?

I often print a one page document from gvim.
Inevitably it follows it with a blank sheet of
paper. But if I print two sheets it does not add
an extra. Other apps such as Okular don't do
this.
Version 7.4.50 on Linux.

Do I set that in .vim
I am building an index for a customer. His
publisher insists on the use of a genuine tab
character and not just spaces emulating a tab.
Can gvim insert a tab character? How?

Vim via Linux and then transfer that to the Win partition.
Unfortunately just copying an exe file to the Win partition doesn't
seem to work. So is there an ISO image anywhere for Vim that I can
download, burn on a cd and then use to put vim on my win partition? I
have a 64 bit pc.
