UTF-8 vs ANSI ? #209

Open CanadianJeff opened 6 years ago

CanadianJeff commented 6 years ago

can files be downloaded in UTF-8 format instead of ANSI? because when trying to compare files it gives me a warning that my 2 files are not in the same format and might have poor results

@CanadianJeff See #27 . Is this what you observe? What files are you comparing? What transfer mode is used for your download ASCII or Binary?

I'm getting the same issue. I download a file using NppFTP and it shows ANSI format. I do Encoding/Convert to UTF-8 and set Encoding/Encode in UTF-8, save the file to the SFTP with NppFTP, yet when I download the file again it is once again showing as ANSI format.

Same thing happens regardless of transfer mode, ASCII or Binary.

My Notepad++ New Document preferences are set as UFT-8, including the checkbox to apply to opened ANSI files

@AnnaCarin Current version is https://github.com/ashkulz/NppFTP/releases/tag/v0.27.4. But I think there is no change contained regarding this problem.
