For all who are interested in the problem, the sent files can be found
on http://www.uvena.de/tmp/geany_koir_test_files.tar.bz2.

I did some testing with Anjuta 2.0, Gedit and Kate.
Anjuta and Gedit can't detect correctly the encoding of test.koi8 and
test.cp1251 but at least Gedit can display it correctly when the
encoding is specified explicitly. And this can also be done with Geany
either by using "Reload As" or by specifying the encoding the file open
dialog(added in r919). Kate has a special problem: it offers also a
drop down box in the file open dialog to choose an encoding but it
seems that it doesn't work. Maybe a bug, I don't know.

So, I hope to choose an encoding in the file open dialog for files
which are known to be not detect correctly is enough. At least, I don't
know a better way.

Regards,
Enrico
