i have a file with ISO-8859-2 encoding ok, i switch the encoding in the edit/encoding and it works now, i have another file with this encoding i have to enter the ISO-8859-2 again, because nobody remembers what i set before this sounds quite major - it'll happen all the time to folks working in other encodings and it'll be frustrating
Are you using the Edit / Encoding menu item or the Editor preference page? You can change the global default using the latter. Or are you saying that you had to enter ISO-8859-2 manually and that it should appear on the menu for Edit / Encoding the next time?
Waiting on a response from Adam.
yes, i'd like to have a way to add my entries to the list in the menu or have another easy way or using an encoding i already used once. easiest (?) to implement would be (would be nice ui - no menu clutter etc.): when i press edit/encodings/others... there's a little input dialog indtead of being simply a text field, it could be a editable combo (like the one in the search dialog - it remembers your previous entries for once session) imagine somebody working in 2 or more different encodings, none being the default and none being on the list presented. having to type it everytime would not make them happy. i'm not sure (i myselft don't change encodings) it may be a serious usability problem for some people.
