That is true. And at the moment it is not a bug but rather an inconvenience, because when a user installs additional language support (especially spell-checking) it is probable he or she will have files also in these additional languages.
Perhaps, these auto-detection encoding options should be included into gedit "Preferences" with the same dialogue window that is used for adding encondings for file opening. Or eve better both gedit keys "auto_detected" & "shown_in_menu" could be editable via "Preferences" in this way. That would be helpful and would save time of users ... Anyway, thank you for your responses. -- Gedit encoding autodetection fails on all cp1250 files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289939 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
