Re: [Vim-latex-devel] IMAP with multibyte lhs

[Bodo G. <ma...@bo...>]

Hi,

Just wanted to send some note on my progress.
First of all thx a lot to LuX, that patch works wonderfully for my current
use.
Also I have succeeded in using unicode-characters in math mode by defining:
\catcode`\Σ=\active \defΣ{\sum}
for the characters I want to use (those that are available on my neo
keyboard layout)
ucs didn't work for me — might be because I use xelatex
I think saving my texsources as utf8 is good enough.
Even if I would try to save it as plain ASCII, I would end up with your
problem, LuX
and I don't think converting those tex commands to their unicode
representation in vim would be a good thing.
If you need to give the file to someone without utf8 capabilities, you could
still write a small filter,
that replaces all the unicode-characters with the latex commands...

best regards
Bodo
