With your instructions, neither do I! I'm very, very thankful for this

This solved problem number 1: how to do UTF in SciTe.

This solved problem number 2: how to force SciTe to always use MkIV.

So did I. The best thing here is that this is simple enough that once 
I'm sure my filestructure and everything else works, I think my user

Thanks a million,
