atom View php file garbled What should I do?

atom views the php file with garbled characters

[Background]

Trouble:

During the period, I want to take a look, and the atom is in Is it convenient to check the file encoding?

[Process of tossing]

1. Explore it yourself first.

There is one in the right click:

change encoding

But there is no view encoding or anything like that.

2. You can see in File->Settings->:

File Encoding

but the current file encoding is not viewed:

3. Search:

atom view current file encoding

Reference:

Go and try that shortcut key:

When ctrl-shift-U

, I found that it was the same as before right-clicking and selecting:

change encoding

, and the file encoding modification dialog box opened:

Here, you can see:

UTF-8 is currently selected

->Indicates that the current file is UTF-8 encoded

Then go to:

Change to another encoding, such as GBK, then open it, and then see if GBK will be automatically selected

->If Yes, you can basically judge:

The encoding selected through the change encoding interface in ATOM is the encoding of the current file

Try it and find the GBK encoded file to open Try:

Use notepad here to install an ANSI encoding, that is, GBK encoded file for testing.

Open it with atom and see, change encoding:

The result is still UTF-8 encoding.

It is not automatically detected that the current encoding is GBK.

4. Moreover, I selected Auto Detect to allow it to automatically detect, but the result was not detected as GBK:

Compared to this:

Notepad can detect ANSI:

Beyond Compare can also detect ANSI:

5. Later I found something was not right:

It seems that Notepad converted to ANSI encoding, not GBK, but UTF-8. . .

In short, after

use Notepad to convert ANSI

and

use ATOM to convert to UTF8

use ATOM to convert to GBK## After

#, open it with ATOM, which are:

(1) Use Notepad to convert ANSI

(2) Use ATOM to convert to UTF8

(3) Use ATOM to convert to GBK

When opened directly, the code will be garbled:

Use Change encoding:

Click Auto Detect:

The result is no detection and it is another encoding, so it becomes another garbled code:

6. (When the implementation knows that the encoding is GBK) Manually click to convert to GBK:

to display normally:

【Summarize】

For ATOM, if you want to check the character encoding of the current file:

It seems that it can automatically detect UTF-8 (or is it because its own character encoding is set to UTF-8 by default?)

But for other character encodings, such as GBK encoding, it cannot be automatically detected

->That is, it cannot be viewed and ATOM cannot actively tell you what the current file encoding is.

-> It's just possible. If you already know the character encoding, you can manually change the encoding to the corresponding character encoding, and then the text can be displayed normally.

So:

ATOM editor cannot intelligently tell you the current file encoding format

(For example, convert the file to GBK by yourself, and then let it automatically detect it after opening it. The results can all detect errors)

But if you set the correct character encoding (including supporting common UTF-8, etc., it also supports GBK, GBK18030 and other Chinese encodings), the characters can be displayed correctly

In general:

In terms of character encoding, it is still a little weak, not as easy as Notepad.
