ANSI.

This seems to be the second time something went terribly wrong with notepad++ in less then a month.

There has to be some bug when doing a lot of undo's and redo's back and forth. That's what I did last time and my php file got messed up. Not as bad as this js file.

I saw you say on VPL that when you open the file in another program, it appears basically empty or all tabs. Unfortunately, it sounds like N++ messed up and saved the file in an incompatible encoding, which rendered the contents destroyed. The same thing happened to me with PHPLobster, and I never used it again.
