Eclipse 3.1 did some magic with the source file encoding so files were
encoded in ISO-8859-1, but local characters of Polish language were still
available and dispayed properly in program.
Eclipse 3.2 does not it only displays "File cant be saved in
ISO-8859-1/**/" message, and asks me to remove all unsupported characters
- but I like very much my unsupported characters! Is there a way to enable
3.1 like behaviour? Because if not I think it's a bug.

OK. I understand that smarter people than me said it is dangerous. But no
such thing happened to me.

Well I didn't get the hint.. Are you sure that this is a proper link? Word
encoding in that file occurs only three times and only to suggest to use
ISO encoding or native2ascii. Is there any way to have polish chars in
Java program, that doesn't require either calling native2ascii on every,
or manually adding these hideous escape chars?
