Hello.
Thank you for the great editor. I have never seen an editor with that unique features provided by the TextMate.
It is very good.
However I think it misses really important ones : International Lanaguage support.
As well as Unicode, other encoding methods, especially CJK, should be supported. However unlike other editors, I suggest one unique feature for selecting encoding method.
1. The encoding method names should be grouped for same languages and listed as such. For example, if it is Korean, It should be listed "EUC-KR", "ISO-2022KR", "UHC(Windows Korean), and so on.
2. The order of the items should reflect how often you use a specific encoding method. Let's say you use the UTF-8 a lot. Then it should move up to the beginning part of the list, or it should hide items you don't use usually.
3. Automatic detection of encoding method used for a file should be supported. Most Mac editors are very weak with this feature.
What do you think about it?

Well, at least for non-Western users who doesn't just use it for programming, of which there aren't many, but I know they do exist.
I have read (most of) the unicode standard (a few times probably) and played (without having fun) with the API's Apple provide, but it remains _a lot_ of work to do true international language support -- it's definitely something I'd like to add, but it'll have to wait till more of the core features I plan are completed.
