           Summary: openoffice does not recognize the incoding of txt
                    files.

openoffice does not recognize the incoding of txt files. 
when i click on txt file to open it or when i use open with option on windows
and select openoffice to open a txt file it does not recognize the incoding of
txt file and by default opens it by the last incoding Western Europe
(Windows-1252/WinLatin 1) and for example for persian charactors it can not
show them correctly and persian txt file becomes unreadible. 
and about english txt files because they have many incoding for them its more
difficult. 
in these cases we should know the incoding of txt file and when we dont know
it, maybe opens with an incorrect incoding and becomes unreadible. 
openoffice only recognize the txt incoding when we open writer, press
control+o, or in the file menu select open and then import a txt file to
writer.
