Hi,

I don't see the original message so I will answer to Enan's message.

1. Backspace in insert mode, over some characters, gives a special  character instead of erasing. I remember that this was a feature, not a bug  – a way to type special characters when they were troublesome to produce  otherwise. I don't need that facility, which is very annoying; I just want  backspace to erase. What should I do? My settings file (_vimrc) currently  has                  set bs=2  

You might want to have a look at the 'digraph' option.

Jürgen
