That would work for me. Specially if it could do a fall-back utf-8 to latin1, but always having it in utf-8 works for me too. > I close this Debian bug as duplicate (in upstream BTS Gnats, we > don't merge but close dupes), and will add you to the interested parties > of /1317.

Basicly, I want to store files in UTF-8. I also want to be able to edit files that are stored in UTF-8. And I want to do that regardless of what the terminal is set up to. I don't want to use iconv on a file to convert it from/to utf-8, I want my editor to do that. And I've set up vim to do what I want. It's just that when mutt and vim interact, they don't agree on the character encoding. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
