I did not set locale in _vimrc. Its default values seems to be set as

the uncorrectly displayed message.

But the problem of gvim's displaying some characters still exists.
e.g. I wish to input characters in IPA(International Phonetic
Alphabet) Extensions. Many of them can not be displayed.
I think the reason is the current guifont (courier_new:h12) dese not
support these characters.  Am I right? Any way, how to display these
IPA chars in gvim/vim?

  Thanks.

Ah, that's definitely a possibility.

How to change the font in the terminal depends on the terminal, Vim has absolutely no control over it (and on Windows, a different font is used in "full-screen" mode and in "windowed" mode).

In gvim, on some versions of gvim including Windows, GTK2, etc., you can use

        :set gfn=*

to get a font chooser letting you choose between all monospace fonts installed on your system. On some versions (including GTK2, not sure about Windows), you can even change the "sample text" displayed in the font chooser by pasting text of your choice, to see how it looks like in the selected font.

Normally, I would point at http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Setting_the_font_in_the_GUI for the details, but if your ISP blocks it, well... I suppose that if you have more problems you'll have to come back to vim_use with them.

Best regards,
Tony.
