It’s possible that the file is exactly the same whether or not it’s encoded as ANSI or encoded as UTF-8 without BOM. I.e a file containing the single letter “a” encoded as ANSI will consist of the single byte 97. If you encode it as UTF-8 without BOM the file will still just consist of the single byte 97. In these cases it’s not possible to tell the encodings apart when re-opening the file.

Which version are you using? For some versions now the default font has been Source Code Pro, maybe it doesn’t support these Lithuanian characters. Try the absolute latest version (6.8.2) which removes Source Code Pro.

Have you tried changing the character set manually? See Encoding -> Character sets -> Baltic.

A while back N++ started trying to autodetect the character encoding, it might work better if you switch this off (Settings -> Preferences -> Misc -> Autodetect character encoding).

Yes, there is such a function in the most recent versions. To get a dictionary sort (a-z), use the menu option Edit -> Line operations -> Sort lines lexicographically. There are two versions - ascending and descending.

There are some other types of sorts as well, where it tries to convert the selected lines to numbers first before sorting.

Never mind - found it: “Begin/End Select”

You need to add BEGIN/END REPEAT/UNTIL and WHILE/END to the open and close boxes of the “Folding in code 1 style:” box on the “Folder & Default” page. That is, add “BEGIN REPEAT WHILE” to the Open: box and “END UNTIL END” to the Close: box.

Look at the documentation at http://udl20.weebly.com/

Try adding “(” and “)” as operators…

You will have to explain your problem in a lot more detail.

I tried to change my previous post but I didn’t make it in 180 secs, so here is a replacement!

What was the exact sequence of actions that you did?

What exactly do you mean by “can’t read it” - does it display as junk?

Find the file in explorer - does it have a suffix? These suffixes tell you what sort of application can open the file - it may not be a txt file at all, and so won’t make sense if you open it with NOTEPAD++

Hey Anthony, I had the same question about “How do I change the font?” After some trial and error I figured out that it’s in the Settings, Style Configurator area. There, you can set the font style for individual document types or the global default style (which will be useful for general .txt documents). In that case you must also check the “Enable global font” checkbox, too. Hope this helps, it did the trick for me.

Scratch prior post

I went to plugins and installed the DspellCheck plugin - hey presto working again.

Wonder where it went when I upgraded Win 7 to Win 10 - another unsolved mystery

I see that Aspell is not portable - in either the PortableApps or native version of NP++

DSpellCheck is a different spell checker.
DSpellCheck is portable in both the native and PortableApps version of NP++ - but it’s not as good of a spell checker
. . . Keep DSpellCheck installed, as a backup, portable spell checker

Can Aspell be made portable?

Is there another spell checker like Aspell that is portable?
