Re: Editor for HTML, UTF-8 and Arabic

Dear Chris,

Thanks for the note.

1.
Notepad2 -> Menu Bar -> File -> Encoding -> UTF-8

2.
Instead of typing RTL texts directly into Notepad2, I type the texts in
Windows Notepad and then copy-paste it to Notepad2.


Regards,
-Behzad

However, perhaps the website is out of date and the support has been
added?
