Hey Nicholas!
NB> although your original message looked funky on my end
I am reading that you are using terminal fonts and thus characters that do not have a correspoding font for will show as an inverted wuestion mark or something similar, for example his Origin line which has two U+0133 characters which I lack a font for; LATIN SMALL LIGATURE IJ. Same with many of the languages, 24 bit Chinese characters come to mind, in the "Merry Christmas" post. However the way I have vim set up with a status line with the decimal and unicode values for the character above the cursor, is a great way to verify that they are indeed utf-8 characters despite they cannot be displayed by a terminal font - I use LatGrkCyr-12x22 which works for 99.99% of the supposed supported languages in fidonet.
The statusline in the default /etc/vimrc is as follows;
set statusline=%<%f%h%m%r%=%b\ U+%04B\ \ %l,%v\ %P
where the %b gives the decimal value and the U+%04B part yeilds the utf-8 value. "307 U+0133" for the characters in his Origin line. To replicate it all I need to do is hold leftAlt and enter 307 on the number pad on the keyboard which results in -> ij. It still is an inverted question mark but it should be LATIN SMALL LIGATURE IJ on a display that can reproduce that character.
Life is good, Maurice
