UTF-8 warning for salt problems

[Reiner030]

Hello,

The function is very nice.
But would'nt it be better to set then the default behavior that vim didn't save them in the wrong format?

like here:

I have added in ~/.vim/ftplugin/sls.vim:

setlocal fileencoding=latin1

and now it looks nice in the file:

# file telescope/init.sls
telescope/init.sls: ASCII text, with very long lines
# vi telescope/init.sls 
< adding umlauts  äöüß>
# file telescope/init.sls
telescope/init.sls: ISO-8859 text, with very long lines

There is only still the red warning in the interface because editing is done in UTF-8 locale which can then be removed ?

Not sure if this is the right fix....vim saves it as the correct type for me.

before:

something.sls: ASCII text

after adding umlauts äöüß:

something.sls: UTF-8 Unicode text

UTF-8 should be expected, right? I may be misunderstanding.

no thats the problem... Salt refuses to work on UTF8 files :(

I thought we had fixed the majority of the UTF-8 problems... =\

ok, thats by setting this option then explicit to true?

Honestly I'm not sure of all the details, I wasn't closely involved in the fixes. But I wasn't aware of that config option, you might not even need it. Have you tested in a 2015.5 version of salt to see if you're still hitting UTF8 problems?
