Re: =?UTF-8?Q?E474:_Invalid_argument:_lis? =?UTF-8?Q?tchars=tab:?~V?\_,eol:¬^[^[?MIME-Version: 1.0

I see two possible reasons to this error.

Possibility 1: your Vim does not support multi-byte encodings such as
UTF-8. In that case, the output of ":version" will include -multi_byte
and the answer to ":echo has('multi_byte')" (with the single quotes
but without the double ones) will be 0. If this is the case, the only
solution is to use a more powerful Vim.

Possibility 2: even if Vim was built with +multi_byte, it might not
realize that your vimrc is in UTF-8. In that case, you should add, at
the very top of your vimrc (and in any case before the first line
containing a character with a Unicode codepoint higher than U+007F)
the line

scriptencoding utf-8

See :help :scriptencoding

You might also want to make sure that Vim uses UTF-8 internally at
runtime, and not some 'encoding' incompatible with the characters
you're trying to use.
