All of the editors below support UTF-8 text, and also allow you to open a file in any character set and save it in another - which will let you convert files as you edit them. OTOH, none of them have particularly good BiDi support, so YMMV as to the convinience of actually editing HTML with Hebrew or any mixed Hebrew english text: gedit (the default GNOME simple text editor. IMHO it has the best BiDi support of the editors listed, but it still sucks) leafpad (the XFCE default editor) kwrite (the default KDE editor. Also kate which offers many enhancements and advanced features over kwrite, but uses the same editor engine). I've also had mixed experiences with vim using a utf-8 enabled console. -- Oded ::..
