I have tried this very often. I have tried this in a fresh scite installation uncommenting this in the global propertie file. But it doesn't work. File->Encoding is Code Page Property. And my files are saved in Ansi. I do not want look every time if I have saved with the proper encoding. I do not want files with ansi and files in utf mixed. I have considered to change the editor, but I very like the lua ability. > > Has anybody experiences with scite-lua-scripts and unicode? > > it depends on what you do but normally lua does not care about funny > characters in strings > > an option is to run the script outside scite and pipe data back Yes, this should allow one to use special librarys. I have heard of 'slnunicode' but haven't tested it yet.
