Yes and no. It's complicated to explain.

Somewhere inside that outer if..endif block, add

scriptencoding utf-8

and you might also add the following just before the "endif" line:ee

else
echoerr "Error: Multi-byte not supported"

Then do
:setlocal fenc?
in your vimrc, and if the answer is latin1, hit 8g8 to find any
illegal UTF-8 byte sequences, and if there is one, correct it, then
repeat until there are none left. Then :e to reload it, its
'fileencoding' should be utf-8. Edit it some more if you want. Then
restart Vim.


Best regards,
Tony.
