Are you sure the file is actually in ISO-8859-7? If it is,
:e ++enc=iso-8859-7 filename.ext
should display it correctly.
Or you could try
:e ++enc=latin1 filename.ext
to have each byte mapped to the character of that value (from 0x00
mapped to U+0000 control character (NULL) to 0xFF mapped to U+00FF LATIN
SMALL LETTER Y WITH DAERESIS). Then hitting ga would tell you the value
of the byte under the cursor, which might help you reconstruct what byte
value is used at which point in the file, and possibly deduce what
encoding was actually used on disk.
Best regards,
Tony.
