************************ Troubleshooting on Linux ************************ I can't see any fancy symbols, what's wrong? -------------------------------------------- * Make sure that you've configured gvim or your terminal emulator to use a patched font. * You need to set your ``LANG`` and ``LC_*`` environment variables to a UTF-8 locale (e.g. ``LANG=en_US.utf8``). Consult your Linux distro's documentation for information about setting these variables correctly. * Make sure that vim is compiled with the ``--with-features=big`` flag. * If you're using rxvt-unicode, make sure that it's compiled with the ``--enable-unicode3`` flag. The fancy symbols look a bit blurry or "off"! --------------------------------------------- * Make sure that you have patched all variants of your font (i.e. both the regular and the bold font files).
