[SOLVED] vim-powerline with rxvt-unicode

Question

Hi! I was wondering if anyone has been able to make the vim plugin vim-powerline work with urxvt.
It works fine with gvim and with gnome-terminal once i change the encoding to utf-8. I think there must be something missing form my urxvt configuration.
Here's my .Xresources, maybe some of you guys knows what i'm missing:
URxvt.imLocale: pt_PT.UTF-8
URxvt.scrollBar: off
URxvt.font: xft:Inconsolata-dz-Powerline:pixelsize=12:antialias=true:hinting=true
URxvt*loginShell:true
URxvt*termName:rxvt-unicode
URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,matcher,tabbed
URxvt.urlLauncher: /usr/bin/iceweasel
URxvt.matcher.button: 1
URxvt.perl-ext: default,url-select
URxvt.keysym.M-u: perl:url-select:select_next
URxvt.underlineURLs: true
URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-fg: 2
URxvt.tabbed.tabbar-bg: 0
URxvt.tabbed.tab-fg: 3
URxvt.tabbed.tab-bg: 0

Answer 1

I use powerline, but i have it installed via YADR. I had to tweak settings here-and-there as it's oriented towards a OSX install, but on the whole it worked out of the box. What exactly is the issue you're seeing? I think the only special stuff I did was making sure I had suitable fonts, and a snippet along the lines of:
if has("gui_running")
" GUI stuff
else
colorscheme solarized
set background=dark
let g:Powerline_symbols = 'unicode'
endif
EDIT: BTW, I can highly recommend the YADR configs; they are nicely organized and use a lot of nice plugins for any serious dev work.
