On my Linux system, if I try to type indic characters (specifically Kannada) in gvim (via ibus), the display is so garbled, I can barely see what has been typed. Is it the expected behaviour? Can Gvim display all the utf characters properly like pluma (another editor under Linux) does?
I have avoided asking about vim/neovim supporting these as it would be a terminal issue.
Any pointers would be helpful.
gvim --version
or the:version
command says. I think some information about fonts might be relevant too (perhaps:set gfn?
), but I'm not so sure what other font information might be helpful here... In any case, please add more details. Thanks! – filbranden♦ Sep 29 '19 at 4:44
