It is not surprising that this does not come up often. Those people who use localized versions of Windows are less likely to run into such problems (for example on a Hungarian Windows system the default encoding does include ő and ű). The rest of us learn quickly that it is best to avoid file names with characters that are not present in the system encoding. Even today there are many programs that don't understand Unicode, and these file names can cause all kinds of weird problems (like a picture viewer skipping them in a slide show, or even worse: a CD burner program silently omitting them from the CD ...) Also the names of those files that are most commonly edited with Vim (like source code) are unlikely to contain non-ascii characters. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
