Yes, I am working on the feature (reopen with encoding + save as encoding). Basically I am going to add all ANSI encodings including GB2312.
For the time being, can you try use “ANSI” as default encoding in the setting menu? It will treat files with no BOM as ANSI and use default Windows code page. If your system is using Chinese as main language, it should use GBK as default.
