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.

Yes, this should allow one to use special librarys. I have heard of 
'slnunicode' but haven't tested it yet.
