Echoing this sentiment

Does it truly support UTF-16, or is it just UCS-2 or the BMP?

It seems to be a fully UTF-16LE compiled program.

It properly recognizes BOMs (at least for UTF-16LE) and informs you in the status bar.

It continues to read & write native files. There are defaults for how to handle files without BOMs.

All of my work is with either ANSI files in multibyte or ASCII for the current code page, or they're UTF-16LE with BOM. So far, no complaints.

You can of course specify how you want to save a given file in the save-as dialog.

YMMV
