title: How do I paste non-ASCII characters into vim?
body: <p>My terminal emulator is configured for Unicode character encoding and my .vimrc contains the line</p>
  
  <pre><code>set encoding=utf-8
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but when I try pasting the word "café" into vim, it comes out as "cafÃ©".</p>
  
  <p>I can make an "é" in vim by typing Ctrl-vu followed by the 4-character code point (00e9) but I'd like the ability to paste it in.</p>
