Persian in Vim (Problem Solved)
Ali Majdzadeh
I have found a way to correctly display Persian characters in Vim using Windows XP console (cmd.exe):
1) Change the console font to Lucinda console.
2) Use chcp command and change the code page of the console to 720:
C:\>chcp 720
Active code page: 720
3) Now, you can type and edit Persian unicode files using Vim in Windows XP console.
By the way, thanks a lot Ben :)

Sorry, there is a problem regarding typing Persian. Now, it is just possible to view Persian UTF-8 files. It is not possible to edit them, because the console should change to utf-8 and in this case Vim does not run.
Kind Regards

Is Persian the same as Farsi?

Did you use a Vim compiled with Farsi support? See ":help farsi".
