[Github-comments] [geany/geany] 'ñ' not converted when changing encoding (Issue #3141)

[JohnCC330]

Sorry for the delay... 

`File | Properties` says the file is utf-8, which is the same encoding as is selected in `Document | Set encoding...`. Running `chardet` on it returns `ISO-8859-9`  (which I understand is as valid as ISO-8859-1 and others).

If I look inside the file, I find: (the `ñ` is at 0x122)

```
     120  20 61 c3 b1 6f 73 3a 20  22 20 2e 0a 20 20 20 20   a..os: " ..
     130  20 20 77 33 5f 6c 69 6e  6b 32 73 28 22 77 65 65    w3_link2s("wee                                                         
```
The strange thing is that `chardet` claims `ISO-8859-9` which should have 'ñ' as a one-byte code. I load the file in Python3 as `open('weekly.php', rb)` and pass the contents as `bytes` to `chardet... 

So, the issue does not seem to be Geany's.

Thanks for the info though!
