[PLUG] Unicode on FC2

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend pointers on getting unicode characters to display
correctly in vim on FC2?  Some of the stuff I work with has Chinese,
Hebrew, and other stuff all mixed together but so far, I've not had any
luck getting things to work right.  I compiled vim with:

  ./configure --enable-gui=auto --with-features=big

That appears to be the correct option to get unicode to work, but I'm
at a loss on how to proceed.  Heck, just getting a decent unicode aware
terminal would be nice (or understanding how my configuration is wrong,
if that's it)

I know unicode support is available as I can get it under xterm:

  LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 xterm \
    -fn
'-Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-SemiCondensed--13-120-75-75-C-60-ISO10646-1'

But my vim still doesn't display the characters correctly, though "cat"
will.  I have multibyte support compiled in vim.

Cheers,
Ovid
