I put the following lines to my _vimrc file in GVim on Windows XP:
set encoding=utf-8
set fileencodings=ucs-bom,utf-8
Then, ALT key changed its behavior in insert mode. Now, ALT key inserts accented characters when pressed with a letter key.
I have several mappings for ALT key in insert mode. But I need to use utf-8 as well. How can I enable utf-8 without changing the behavior of ALT key?
