Re: Encoding Issues on Windows

Hey Jarrod,

I've not been able to solve the problem. You could also take a look at my post on Stack Overflow which stays unanswered for several months by now. As I say there, this topic is kind of shady and covered with controversies as nobody can answer it. Furthermore, I discuss UTF-8 codepage there too, and it does not work properly not only with Vim, but many other applications too primarily because the majority of them simply don't support it (including Vim), what to me looks weird that a modern OS does not classify UTF-8 codepage as a first class citizen. Currently, I'm forced to use GVim because of this issue. The best we can hope for is that Mr. Moolenaar finally gives us clarification on this topic once and for all.

Mr. Moolenaar, what is the real state of Unicode support for terminal Vim on Windows? Do you plan to support UTF-8 codepage?

Regards,
Alexander
