Known Issue

Cursor issue

Cursor is abnormal when navigate between wide characters

Delete issue

When delete wide characters, terminal may only delete 1byte of character, so you must delete multiple times. This also happened in editor like vi/vim.

Chaos

The terminal output my dive into BIG CHAOS when there are multiply charset mixed in one page.

This plugin is design for EMERGENCY USE. you'd better edit file other then UTF-8 outside terminal, the plugin is not guarantee actual content write in your file.
