What settings do I need to set in Vim/gVim to be able to view Unicode text files which have text in many languages?
You may make these assumptions:
- The number of languages is more than two.
- Some of the languages are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
- It is enough if I can view these files in gVim (not necessarily Vim).
- gVim 7.0 running on Windows.
Here is a text sample, which when saved in Unicode opens fine in Notepad, but shows up as gibberish in gVim:
This is English.
这是中文。
これは日本です。
한국입니다.
ಇದು ಕನ್ನಡ.
Jerryjvl: There seems to be Unicode support in GViM. I have not been successful in enabling it to work with >2 languages. http://www.vim.org/htmldoc/mbyte.html
