• DY HTML Edit Create and edit web page files, CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) files or embedded in HTML CSS, and Javascript files or embedded in HTML files. The editor I have been using does not handle non-ANSI characters. Characters with code points 128 to 255 are correctly saved as two byte UTF-8, but those above are changed to a similar ASCII character or a question mark (?). This editor work internally in 2 byte UCS-2 (formerly called UTF-16 (see the linked page)), then save as a true UTF-8 file. A work in progress, not completed code. This is off-site backup and a place for notes. Feel free to browse, copy code style/fragments or make suggestions.
