[Vim-latex-devel] eacute input on a mac in latex-suite

[Sébastien B. <bar...@cr...>]

Hello,

I'm using vim and macvim (both from macports) on a mac os computer
with an english keyboard. In order to input an eacute (é) character, I
use the standard mac sequence : option+e e

In vim, it works as expected. When I press option+e, it inserts a ´
character with a yellow background, then when I press e, it is
replaced with é.

In MacVim, it works in insert mode, but it does not if I want to
replace a character. Say I want to replace the character under the
cursor with é, the option+e e sequence will do it in vim, but in
MacVim the character will be replaced by ´ instead of é. I have the
same problem if I want to replace the character with ú (option+e u).

This is happening while editing plain text file. For latex files, with
vim-latex-mode active, there is additional problem: I cannot insert
(in insert mode) the é character. When I press option+e, ´ is
inserted, then when I press e it is removed. This happens in both vim
and macvim. But it works for ú !

This last problem is the most annoying.

Does anybody here have a suggestion?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastian
