> Nvi 2 (nvi under openbsd) has Unicode support. It's like BSD Vi but with Iconv. Perfect for my needs.

My primary editor for text (not code) editing and e-mail. I just wish Unicode support made it into base vi(1) on OpenBSD, but for now I can at least use it for all other purposes other than the ones in the previous sentence.

Ironically ed(1) supports Unicode under X if you XTerm and locale are set for that.
