Re: looking for UTF-16 Big Endian editors for Software agreements

[Mike Amos <yl_mra@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just saw your request.

I use PSPad. http://www.pspad.com/en/  It's a great editor that I use 
for a wide range of development purposes. It supports any of the common 
line endings for ASCII and will automatically detect your files for 
encoding. Use the format tab to explicitly select or change the encoding 
or line ends so that you can open a file of one encoding and then change 
the formatting and save it as another.

The editor also provides a large number of highlighter files and allows 
creation of your own highlighter files which I use for CL and other IBM 
i specific things. It also offers a build in hex edit function via the 
view tab that sometimes comes in extremely handy.

The down side is that it only runs under Windows.

If you use it and like it, please leave a donation - I am in no way 
associated with the editor than as a user.
