this is done in "$VIM/gvimrc" so you can override it by adding the following

|

Note: Having 'encoding' default to "utf-8" has the side-effect that all files
|
||||
you load will be converted in memory (unless they are already utf-8 encoded).
|
||||
When you save them back to their original encoding, the contents in memory are
|
||||
converted once again. This means that if you read and then write a file
|
||||
immediately the file might still change. This is no problem if you are
|
||||
editing utf-8 encoded files, but if you edit say a binary file then you should
|
||||
set 'encoding' to "latin1" since this does no conversion.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: UTF-8 can represent all characters defined in Unicode, which includes
|
||||
all characters in all other standard encodings, so it should be perfectly safe
|
||||
to edit files in any encoding while 'encoding' is set to "utf-8". Of course,
|
||||
you may need to set 'fileencodings' to auto-detect the encoding of the files
|
||||
you edit, or force the detection with |++enc| on the command line.
|
||||
|
||||
However, if you are editing files that use multiple encodings (container
|
||||
formats like MIME or Unix mbox files) or no standard encoding (binary data,
|
||||
see also |edit-binary|), you may want to prevent MacVim from re-encoding the
|
||||
file at all. In this situation, you will need to set both 'encoding' and
|
||||
'fileencodings' to a simple single-byte encoding such as Latin1 so that when
|
||||
the file is read into memory, the original bytes are left untouched.
