I've attached a small tarball illustrating the problem I'm having with
expand().
gunzip jose.tar.gz
tar xf jose.tar
cd josé
vi junk.vim
:so %
:echo x[4]
:echo y[4]
With the first echo, you'll see (using utf-8 for encoding) <e9>. This
is the hex code for a é. The second echo shows <c3>.
:echo x
shows /jos<e9>/junk.vim
:echo y
shows /josé/junk.vim
This problem has some definitely unwanted effects. At least one person
redid their home directory's name to avoid the accent, because netrw
won't display it correctly (or use it correctly) because of this bug.
That is an encoding issue. The 'é' in your tar archive is latin1 encoded
while your Vim tries to read it as utf-8. BTW: How does the shell
display it? Somehow the shell should know the encoding, so you might
check the output of the locale command and try to use iconv() like this:
iconv(expand("%:p"), 'latin1', 'utf-8')
BTW: There is a patch in the todo list, that should fix that issue.
