We have a source code base that uses ANSI, UTF8 and
UNICODE encodings. Can we modify KDiff3 to
automatically detect a file's encoding? Also, can we
have an option to manually override a file's encoding
without restarting KDiff3?
I plan automatic encoding detection for a future version.
If you change the encoding in the regional settings you
need not restart KDiff3 but must restart the comparison
(menu "File"->"Reload", shortcut F5).
But if you are in a file merge you will have to restart
that. Your merge changes are then lost.

Hi,
I implemented automatic detection of UTF8 and Unicode encodings based on the byte-order-mark
at the file beginning in KDiff3-0.9.91.
Cheers,
Joachim
