   - The encoding can be selected/changed in File Open/Save dialog, via context menu or status bar, in Project Settings, in Tools->Options->Document settings, in syntax specification (here you can set as preferred encoding, as forced encoding). In addition to this HippoEDIT does an auto-detection of the encoding using different algorithms (Check BOM bytes, statistics test for UTF16 LE/BE, statistics test for UTF8, check by encoding strings and same checks as IE uses).    - The encoding can be selected/changed in File Open/Save dialog, via context menu or status bar, in Project Settings, in Tools->Options->Document settings, in syntax specification (here you can set as preferred encoding, as forced encoding).
