Swedish Characters not corretly parsed. #277

I'm trying to translate the weather meter into Swedish, the Webparser seems to work fine but if i use swedish characters in WeatherMeter.Ini they bug out:

(Feels like/Day Length/Moonrise/Moonset)

Change the skin file encoding to "UTF-16 LE BOM" (using Notepad++ or your preferred editor).

Works perfectly! Thanks!

I've always found it odd that Rainmeter needs files to be in that strange format. My text editor on Linux straight-up will not display that format at all. Git/GitHub also do not know what to do with it and display them as binary files.

Why is it that I can have translations from other languages in a UTF-8 file in my other programming projects, but it does not work for Rainmeter? That's always confused me.
