Chinese GB support

[berdey]

I am from China. can the textpad support the Chinese GB? thus we can use it.

No. The current version of TextPad stores each character internally in a single byte, which isn't big enough to hold the 6763 Chinese characters of GB 2312-80. Join the throng clamouring for a Unicode version!

Latin users are clamouring for Unicode. I live in China, and I know how annoying it gets when things display wrongly. If I run Chinese software using GB encoding on my English copy of windows, NOTHING displays - File, Edit, Messageboxes ALL show as ???? characters.
Unicode is universal - and windows, linux, mac, and most browsers fully support it. Much better for you to consider this option so that you can expand into other territories later on.
