To try the English version, you need to solve the problem of Chinese support in many software programs. Vim has been used for a long time. When gedit is used occasionally, there is a problem in Chinese. Today, it cannot be solved simply.

In fact, gedit uses an encoding matching list. Only the encoding in this list will be matched. Encoding not in this list will be garbled. All you need to do is add gb18030 to the matching list.

The following is from wiki. Ubuntu:

* Graphical mode, applicable to Ubuntu users, but not kubuntu/xubuntu users.

 

Follow these steps to make your gedit correctly display the Chinese encoding file.

 

1. Press the Alt-F2 to open "Run ApplicationProgram"Dialog box. Or run gconf-editor on the terminal.

2. Type "gconf-Editor" in the text box and press the Enter key to open "configuration Editor ".

5. Click "add" on the right of the list, enter "gb18030", and click "OK.

6. A "gb18030" is added at the bottom of the list ". Click Select it, and click the "up" button on the right

"Gb18030" is located at the top of the list. Then add GBK.

7. Click OK to close the configuration editor.
