User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; de; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070328 Firefox/2.0.0.2 Build Identifier: When opening a file using the list of last opened files in the File-menu with an unusual or non-detectable encoding (like ASCII) and opening another file over this menu with another encoding (like UTF-8), Mousepad seems to make a wrong encoding recognition. It seems that the charrecter encoding stays in the old format (in this example: ASCII). This bug doesn't occur if you open a file with the Open dialog. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open an ASCII file using the list of last opened files 2. Open an UTF-8 file using the list of last opened files Actual Results: The encoding stays on ASCII.
I can't reproduce as you described. I created the file 'test.txt' with the content 'teste andré' and saved as ASCII(Using Notepad++). Then I created another file 'test2.txt' and pasted some hiragana text as UTF-8 without BOM. Using the recently opened shortcut, Mousepad opens the both file correctly, no matter in which order. But if I double click the 'test.txt' file from Thunar, Mousepad can't recognize that the file is encoded as ASCII, it only opens if I select ISO-8859-1 or WINDOWS-1252 encoding. Matt, should we close this bug and open another one?
Yeah, definitively open a new bug report against new version for any issues. Closing as fixed since it can't be reproduced with lastest version, which is a total re-write of version this bug is about, and which is no longer maintained or supported. Please feel free to re-open and update the version on this bug or make a new report if you experience it still in latest version.
