jojo: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of those suggestions just hinder my workflow I'm afraid. Maybe I should better explain what the most important things for me are here:
- I do not want to be warned everytime I open an ANSI file that it contains invalid UTF-8 codepoint. That just slows down my work.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this case don't set UTF-8 as favourite jojo: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - I do not want the codepage for those legacy ANSI files to be autodetected, as Chinese or Japanese characters don't have the same width as e.g. all characters in Windows-1252. For me it's not a big matter if DOS ANSI characters are not decoded correctly (in my mind I can pretty much map the incorrect characters anyway), but if the formatting of tables breaks because some characters get turned into Chinese glyphs, it's rather annoying. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Open Settings in the Code page menu and uncheck all unnecessary code pages jojo: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - All of that I want without having to manually reopen a file with a different encoding.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1) Set ANSI or 1252 as your favourite code page. 2) If you create mostly UTF-8 files, set UTF-8 as default CP for new files - in project settings, if you use project or in the program settings / Files 3) Use some accented chars in your UTF-8 no BOM files in comment to allow correct autodetection 4) If you want to improve autodetection (I aske you about it already), send me some files what are not autodetected correctly. I need to analyze what causes worng autodetection. -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?4,77125,77137> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
