This is probably because ae doesn't support the character set. I will pass
this on to the upstream maintainer, but it lookes like more than a trivial
fix.
Please remember that ae is not intended to be a full featured editor. It's
intent is to be small enough to fit on the base system and provide basic
editing capability for making changes to config files.

Luck,
