Hi all,

I sometimes need to change the encoding used for a file.  I have the
default set to latin1 except for files with an ucs-bom.  However, when
I load a file encoded in UTF-8 or CP-437 the default is wrong.  What I
do then is normally to ":set fencs=utf8" and ":vi" to reload the file.

However, what can I do about a file that cannot be reloaded?  Eg:

$ man llseek | gvim -f -

To work around it, I have to do this:

$ man llseek > llseek.man
$ gvim llseek.man

Is there another way?

Regards,
Albert.
