It's already there but that doesn't fix the problem with
'showbreak'.

But then my US-ASCII files (and new files) will be considered utf-8,
and I don't want that. Or do you mean that if I set (e.g.)
'fencs=ucs-bom,latin1,utf8' things will work even if utf8 is never tried
because latin1 always succeeds?

OK, now I understand, thanks :)))) Any way of forcing a conversion?
Again, thanks a lot :)
