I notice that Textpad can not open any file which has a filename which does uses unicode filenames. Instead I just get an error indicating that texpad can not c:\?????.html contains and invalid path, when trying to open file '萔菾菰萩쫦쪹.html'
Are there any plans to change this? It is a shame for TextPad to be this good and yet stumble at a very basic requirement for modern programs.
Support for unicode file names?

Probably not before TextPad supports Unicode.
Still broken
Looks like it is still broken in 5.0:
- can't open via file dialog
- appears with question marks in explorer pane and disappears with single click
For me a program that claims "16-bit Unicode, UTF-8 and 8-bit text files with single and double byte characters can be edited", but can't open the files if they have non-Latin characters in their filename is poor.
Note that applications need to be compiled using the unicode API:
