I'm running a GUI version of Vim, but I have no settings in gvimrc.
I ran :verbose set encoding? listchars? guifont? Here is the result
encoding=utf-8
Last set from ~\vimfiles\vimrc
listchars=tab:<bf> ,eol:<ac>,trail:<bf>
Last set from ~\vimfiles\vimrc
guifont=Consolas:h9:b:cANSI
Last set from ~\vimfiles\vimrc

Any suggestions?
