UTF18LE, with/without signature
UTF8, with/without signature
Is that possible to add support of viewing such files, with automatic encoding detection, of cause.

Please, add this. Viewing of UTF8-encoded files in 2014 is a must. And it must be really easy to implement, mustn't it?

Actually, Internal Viewer is not that simple. It doesn't load the whole file into memory and it has hex view and a find function, all of which are not that simple to do right with Unicode files.
You can use an external viewer in the meantime.

It's all obvious. Internal viewer uses MapViewOfFile/etc and as for me it's a very simple plugin. btw hex mode has nothing to do with encodings, it must be always ANSI..
I do understand that converting salamander to Unicode is a task, but Internal Viewer could be at least unicode-aware (without using external viewers).
