Re: How to run shell commands containing non-ascii characters from Vim

This is what I tried:

For french this works:

echo system('chcp 850 & type "' . iconv('c:\temp\été2012.txt', &enc,
'latin1') . '"')

Even simply this works without the chcp (probably because my shell is
cp850 by default):

echo system('type "' . iconv('c:\temp\été2012.txt', &enc, 'latin1') .
'"')

I tried also but it didn't worked:

echo system('type "' . iconv('c:\temp\été2012.txt', &enc, 'cp850') .
'"')

For russian dosen't work althought it seems it should work, here the
shell encoding is changed to russian, and vim's utf-8 is changed to
russian 855:

echo system('chcp 855 & type "' . iconv('c:\temp\Copy of Новый
текстовый документ.txt', &enc, 'cp855') . '"')

I tried also with 866 which is for russian also:

echo system('chcp 866 & type "' . iconv('c:\temp\Copy of Новый
текстовый документ.txt', &enc, 'cp866') . '"')

I tried also with koi8-r without success

echo system('chcp 855 & type "' . iconv('c:\temp\Copy of Новый
текстовый документ.txt', &enc, 'koi8-r') . '"')
echo system('chcp 866 & type "' . iconv('c:\temp\Copy of Новый
текстовый документ.txt', &enc, 'koi8-r') . '"')
