Isn't this the same problem you already reported as solved in <92> unknown character when opened with Vi editor in Linux a few days ago?

Hi Era, ¿ character is coming as another character apart from <92> in the file. I assumed in the beginning that ¿ and <92> are the same. So i asked for the replacement of <92> only in the post. But now i see that ¿ is also there in the file.
