I am working on a software agreement that will be used with a soon to be

CCSID 13488, UTF-16 and Big Endian.

Looking for suggestions for a PC editor that will do the job that is
inexpensive or free. What have you been using?

Presuming you're stuck with some flavour of WinDOS then WordPad will save as a Unicode Text Document. Not sure what dialect of Unicode it is but I presume you can determine that from MickySoft's support pages (WordPad's help text doesn't). You ought to be able to create the documents using WordPad and then, if necessary, use the CPY command to convert from whatever CCSID represents WordPad's encoding to 13488.
