Dear All,
I have excel files containing Chinese characters. I have a requirement to display the contents of both the English and the Chinese files in the Unix box using the vi editor. But I when I try to open the Chinese files, the characters are junk. Can one of you help me in getting rid of this problem?
Regards,
Antony
On my Linux system, there is no problem with vim in xterm. But I have not had any luck with nvi.
Are you opening vi from a terminal in an X-Windows environment? Other mechanisms of displaying Chinese characters such as on framebuffered virtual consoles are mostly crippled here and there IMO.
Could one of you confirm if this is possible in vi or not? If not I need to check for alternate option to view the Chinese characters from the linux box.
This is possible. My vi editor has no problem displaying the Chinese characters.
Please answer the above question, are you using the X-Windows environment?
Yes I am using Xmanager2 software.
The actual content:
4| |Chinese|EOF
5|Ny |Japanese|EOF
Content displayed in vi:
T�y |Chinese|EOF
TMR |Japanese|EOF
Please let know if there are specific settings that need to be done.
Regards,
Antony
