Is there a simple way to make SciTE use the iso-8859-2 (central
european) encoding on Windows? I know there's probably somthing I need
to put in code.page and character.set, but I have no idea what would
work.

I would love to have this feature as well, but I don't think the current
Windows version of SciTE supports it.

#Charset Name       Charset Value (hex)  Codepage number
#-------------------------------------------------------
#DEFAULT_CHARSET           1 (x01)
#SYMBOL_CHARSET            2 (x02)
#MAC_CHARSET              77 (x4D)
#OEM_CHARSET             255 (xFF)
#ANSI_CHARSET              0 (x00)            1252
#RUSSIAN_CHARSET         204 (xCC)            1251
#EASTEUROPE_CHARSET      238 (xEE)            1250
(...)

Information taken from Microsoft, it is quite old, maybe a bit outdated.
In your case, it is character.set=0 and code.page=1252 (Ansi).

ISO-8859-2, also known as latin2, is similar to Windows CP-1250
(at least most Polish letters have identical codes).

I see two solutions:
- use a converter, maybe bound to a keystroke in SciTE
- install an iso-8859-2 font and keyboard layout

Personally I would use UTF-8 instead of legacy encoding, if possible.
