Hello, FreeBSD people,
In some of asian locale environment, EUC-KR and EUC-JP or such,
I want to know whether 2-byte cursor movement is supported in vi or not.
Just some example:
# LANG=ko_KR vi (in 2.2-GAMMA)
# LANG=ja_JP vi (in most env.)
If I write some sentence and move cursor to edit this, it moves
only 1-byte boundary, not 2-byte boundary of our char.
Is 2-byte cursor movement(I think it is up to vi for understanding
EUC locales and supporting this) supported in vi in EUC locale
environment? or not, someone tell me what is problem and whether
someone tried to do so or not...
