...100% more then what you're charging for TopStyle now if I could just save in UTF-8! Please make it so! And, yes, I know this has been asked a bizillion times now. I just can not find an editor I like as much as TopStyle and converting thousands of files a year to UTF-8 as I publish pages on the net is getting tedious and tiresome. For the love of.......... please make it happen!

Sorry if I sounded angry. I was in chrset-conversion *** that day. I partly blame PHP (in general) for not supporting Unicode. Long story.. nevermind..

...anyways...

Can't wait for TS 4! =)

Last I heard was that TS4 was in pre-alpha testing. I know that UTF-8 support is one of the most frequently-requested features and that TS4 would be the earliest version that could include it. It's not a trivial addition and would require considerable rewriting of code. Although NG will not yet divulge any details of planned new features (understandably), most of us are hoping that UTF-8 support will be included.

That said, I'm not so keen about paying double simply for that one feature. I don't actually need it.

I'm happy to say that Unicode support will be in TopStyle 4.0

For all the hassles I'm going through right now with applications I'm converting over to Unicode I would imagine it's not trivial.

Totally understandable Alan, but I would! Triple if I could have right now! -laughs- Been using TopStyle/CSE Validator combo for many years, dare I say eight (I think) and I'm so comfortable with them now I could never change to another. Hmm, wonder if CSE will be compatible, still, for TS4? Nick? -chuckles-

I, too, am happy you said that! Keep up the great application standards!

OK, Nick, did you just say that to prove me wrong?

Not intentionally, no!  My "unofficial" stance is that I don't talk about features until they're actually coded.  Unicode support has already been added, so I feel safe talking about it

That's more 'open' than most developers are! Most won't utter a word other than in the most general terms until an open beta version is released, at least.

Some things just need to be said "unofficially" due to priority of circumstance keeping the market 'open' to existing and future customers.
