[Github-comments] [geany] Unable to watch patch file created byTortoiseSVN if path contains non ASCII characters (#873)

[elextr]

You would have to first get this supported by the [Scintilla](www.scintilla.org) editing component we use.  It only allows one encoding for the entire edit buffer.  That buffer is the only store of the data and is where it is edited, there is no external "binary" copy of the data.

If you raise an issue with Scintilla please post here so we can track it.

But even if that was possible, what encoding to use for parts of the file.  As @b4n said, it is not possible to determine encoding automatically.
