arrow chars do not work on Windows 7 and Vim 7.3 #135
Comments
Im aware of this problem but dont have a windows machine to investigate with. That is why NERDTreeDirArrows defaults to 0 on windows. Im not sure if it actually something with windows, or the way that vim is compiled on windows or something else :-/ |
I had a very similar issue on CentOS 5.6. I had ?~V? rather than the arrows. This really helped, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3766204/vim-doesnt-support-unicode

If I force arrow keys with NERDTreeDirArrows=1 in _vimrc I still don't get arrow chars (I tried all kinds of modern fonts like Consolas and DejaVu Sans Mono etc), but instead get "â–¸" in both gvim and command prompt.
