Editing an UTF-8 file in FlashFXP kills Unicode characters and replaces them with garbage

Hello!

When I click "Edit" to edit a file (for example a .html file), then save it and allow FlashFXP to upload it, my Unicode characters are replaced by garbage characters.

When I open up the original .html file in Notepad, I can see that the format is UTF-8.

I think FlashFXP does not care about this and simply saves it as ANSI.

To edit UTF-8 files you need to configure an external editor such as notepad or Edit++

The internal editor in FlashFXP v4.x does not support UTF-8, it is ANSI only.

We're working on releasing a Unicode compliant edition of FlashFXP with full UTF-8 support but it is this very same problem that is causing us major delays/headaches with the release.
