One can easily reopen a document with desirable encoding using Encoding
plugin included in gedit-gmate package which comes from ubuntu-on-rails ppa.
UTF-8, windows-1251 and western iso-8859-15 are in the list. Don't know if
other encodings support can be added, but 1251 will do for me.
Found it
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: gedit
Then open text file with non-default encoding (for example CP1251) it
- opens with default. I need to cloze it, open fileopen dialog, browse it
- from my home directory or drug'n'drop (from ftp folder), chooze right
- encoding and finaly
This is definitely bug of this peace of software, that's why:
if you doing some action with user data - do it best possible way OR warn user
about low quality / no guaranty of this action.
In this case if gedit so stupid, that can't use already existing library
from kedit to guess file encoding,

I want this report be bug, not wishlist.
This statement also counts as a wishlist item, mind you.
This is bug, not a wishlist.
Why? Gedit works fine, but generally lacks a feature to read user's mind… and,
perhaps a way to tell it what code pages you normally use from within its
preferences
I wish there is a plugin or something…
By the way, did you try searching?

Read my comment #5 - points 1 and 2 are probably more like wishlist items,
while point 3 is clearly a bug (well, other than directly described by subject
of this issue).

This is annoying, I wish there is a plugin or something resides in the menu
that by clicking it I could change the encoding used to interpret the text in
the current tab.
thank you.

from release to release, it is pain for Russian users, to switch
encodings by closing file, finding path where it was opened originally,
set encoding in combobox.
Да, меня просто достало это в gedit :). Еще немного и я таки сам наверно
запатчу это.

KWrite has also automatic encoding detection and it works perfect (my
CP-1251 files are read in CP-1251 and UTF-8 files are read in UTF-8).
P. S. This is bug, not a wishlist.

As a workaround you might also want to modify the list of automatically
detected code pages in gedit, there is a key for that in GConf:
/apps/gedit-2/preferences/encodings/auto_detected
Not on-the-fly, but solves general cases by removing the cause…

Actually, for me it only detects UTF-8 and Latin-15. I even tried to
open a KOI8-U text file on gedit, and it was rendered as Latin-15.
Perhaps it depends on the locale?
While a fix is released, here's a workaround:
1- Open the text file with Firefox.
2- Select the correct character encoding.
3-
There is easier workaround:
u...@host $ sudo apt-get install kwrite

It has too many dependencies, while Firefox comes by default on most

Guys, do not quarrel over workaround. ;-)
All text editors like for example geany, leafpad, kate or nano may be used. As
I wrote, I used geany to change file encoding. Worked fine.
You do not even need any other app to solve the issue, gedit is just enoug. But
it forces you to do unexpected
I also think so.

That's actually a bug, not wishlist item. Gedit shows that it can detect
any encoding of the file but actually it detects only KOI-8 and UTF-8.
Moreover there is no way to open a file in any other encoding than UTF-8
or KOI-8.
So it is a bug with normal priority.

I just want to add that I just had similar problem.
I opened cp1250 encoding text file. Gedit opened it incorrectly as iso-8859-2
file thus making it hardly readable.
I tried the same file in Leafpad - worked fine (probably has some type of
guessing algorithm).
I tried it in Geany - opened
I just cleaned all my configuration for gedit and everything works.
