I can now read the cyrillic text with vi. Now here are the problems. * How do I type in the cyrillic character (with code greater then 127)? * A friend of mine, who knows the answer for the questions above for his machine, logs into mine and we are trying to talk in Russian -- he sees whatever he types as a cyrillic text. I see that as a set of Latin (English) characters that correspond to what he types. How to turn off such a translation?
