为什么Vim在Ex模式下不能正确插入西里尔符号？

Question

To make changes in several files I use the following script:

echo search('publications.html"') | normal o<li><a href="./book_series.html">Книжные серии</a></li>
echo search('collections.html"') | d
echo search('photo.html"') | d
wq

Then I do for file in *.html do; vim -e $file < script; done for file in *.html do; vim -e $file < script; done

As a result a string "^Z=86=K5 A5@88" is inserted instead of "Книжные серии". All html files as well as the script itself are utf-8 encoded, and no other problems with Cyrillic revealed. What's going on?

Thanks in advance for any comment!

Answer 1

You probably need to tell Vim to interpret your script as utf-8, even if all the encodings are correct.

Try inserting this line at the top of your script:

 scriptencoding utf-8

Answer 2

According to the vim_use mailing list response to this same question, multibyte characters are not handled in Vim's ex mode .

Thus, the solution is to not use ex mode at all.

Instead of using:

vim -e $file < script

Use the -S flag to run the script outside of ex mode:

vim -S script $file
