Under most implementations, you don't, since most versions can't
|
||
|
|
edit 8-bit files anyway.

Emacs is a fine operating system, but I still prefer UNIX. -me

In vi, how do you enter a character like \331 into a search

Subject: how to deal with octal characters in vi?

Recently, I had cause to edit a file using vi, and the file had a
|
||
|
|
few upper-ASCII characters in it. They show up as octal characters, i.e.
|
||
|
|
\056, \310
