I understood that - default URF-8 encoding is for sure better for the future.
Just tried to say: if there are too much problems for the Users with the new standard UTF-8 encoding - one solution could be to only store the merge result in UTF-8 if there are special characters in the merge result.

Anyway - Thank you for your commitment to this Project!
Keep up the great work, bye from Austria
