Problem:

I want my unicode characters to be stored on disk as (rather tan utf8/16 encoding)

\u####

However, I want them dispalyed as unicode characters when opened up in vim.

I think the easiest way to acheive this is some bufopen/bufwrite script that automatically:

on opening, convert \u#### to unicode character

on writing, convert unicode characters into \u####

However, I don't know what functions to call to make this happen. Can someone lend a hand?

Thanks!
