Reopen with encoding - how can I add more?

[c0debreak]

I need to reopen with GB2312 encoding, but the dialog in the bottom corner has no such encoding.

How can I add more to the list?

Anyone? This is a critical feature needed @OdatNurd @kingkeith

[kingkeith]

afaik you can’t - maybe just convert the file to standard UTF-8 and use that

[c0debreak]

Is it by the design? Perhaps I can write a python plugin to do that?

[kingkeith]

probably, give it a go

There’s already some related plugins:

Just made one https://github.com/CaledoniaProject/Sublime-EncodingConverter case closed

On linux/mac you can use the built-in iconv to convert your file to utf-8:

iconv -f GB2312 -t UTF-8 oldfile.txt -o newfile.txt

I know that. I just need to work inside the editor

Despite its name, the https://packagecontrol.io/packages/ConvertToUTF8 package should be able to help you:
