Shift-JIS (Codepage 932) support request

#1

Hi,

I expect strongly that Sublime Text supports Shift-JIS.
Because Shift-JIS (Codepage 932) is very very popular encoding in Japan (on Windows).

Windows Codepage: 932 (Japanese Shift-JIS)

Keep on work! I support you :stuck_out_tongue:

Totally second that. Iโ€™m on OS X but I still have to use other editors when I have to edit Japanese texts (usually seeing them as comments in code and text parts in HTML).
Otherwise Sublime Text is awesome.

Same issue is reported in here too.

The most commonly used Japanese encodings are shift_jis, iso-2022-jp (jis) and euc (ujis). (And also UTF8 but thatโ€™s supported already.)

Third for Korean(cp949).

In Windows, still many programmers have to read/write code in their system encoding.
To most Asian programmers, this is a big reason why sublime text cannot be a main
code editor despite its great features.

Please take a look at this plug-in which supports editing and saving files with CJK encodings including GBK, EUC_KR, EUC_JP, etc: github.com/seanliang/ConvertToUTF8
