vim unicode setup for windows 2000
To display unicode (utf8) files in vim in windows, the following commands should be added to %PROGRAMS%\Vim\_vimrc:
set encoding=utf-8 set guifont=Courier_New:h12 set guifontwide=Arial_Unicode_MS:h12
The built-in method to input diacritical marks is to use vim digraphs, Ctrl-K + symbol1 + symbol2. The full list of them can be displayed using :digraphs command.
