Pieter van den Hombergh updated NETBEANS-6069:
----------------------------------------------
    Description: 
 

I happened to edit a bundle properties file with german UTF text inside, but 
NetBeans opens as ISO-8859-1.

The use case in this case is PHP project, but I think it is no longer relevant 
to 

make NetBeans assume from the extension that the file is ISO-8859-1.

NetBeans seems to silently convert, and thereby break the original UTF-8 file.

 

Anyway, it was a surprise. 

Maybe this is adequate: 'assumption is the mother of all f**k-ups.
