Swedish characters (åäö) in Vim & Nano
Question
When I'm using Vim or Nano in Mac OS X Lion, the Swedish characters "ÅÄÖ" show up as "åäö". It works fine in Terminal.
I've added this line to my .vimrc:
set encoding=utf8
If I run locale in Terminal it shows:
LANG="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Any ideas?
Solution
I found the solution here: see thread
"The solution was to uncheck the "Escape non-ASCII input" checkbox in the Advanced tab of the Terminal.app settings."
Thanks Idigas and progo for your time!
