UTF-8 as default doesn't seem to stick
I have, I believe the default file format set to UTF-8, but I still need to use "Save As" and then select UTF-8. Is there a way to make that the default?

Change the default encoding to UTF-8
How can/do I do that, because I need the special characters?

ANSI/UTF-8/Regular text
I often get errors in TextPad about special characters. Is it UTF-8 I want so that the characters will work? I'm not inputting them but the errors show up when saving.
I don't need special characters (at least not now) so how do I "turn them off" or avoid them?

Color settings not showing
I went through and set color changes, and did it the the "Default" class. But when I restart TextPad, or start a new document, the colors are still showing in default settings.
Do I need to set each class separately to make them "apply" if I want them as "default"? Isn't there a way to even copy ...

Ruler bar in the edit window?
I certainly might be missing something, but I cannot find how to have a ruler bar visible.
Is it possible, and how?

Re: Applying a theme
I got it -- for the most part.
What I cannot seem to get the Styles to do is the give me then a light background with black text for the current line -- a reverse of the white text on black but with a pale-colored background.
It just doesn't seem to want to do that.

Applying a theme
OK, I am admittedly a bit slow, nonetheless...
I went through and set up my "Dark theme" having not found any already configured.
How do I apply this to see if I even like it after a while of usage?
Update:
I kinda sloggeed my way to a quasi-starting point, but now: I have the dark theme, so I ...
