Please be specific: What do you mean with "does not work at all"? Since Vim doesn't support gb18030 internally and only Unicode has all the characters, I guess it would only work to edit these files when 'encoding' is "utf-8". However, if gb18030 is used in the environment that means that console output needs to be converted, thus 'termencoding' also needs to be set. -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 202.
