This is for Windows:

After many years of frustrated searching and switching, I've settled on
Andrew West's BabelPad as the best editor that is an expert on all
things Unicode, and Notepad++ as the otherwise-best editor (at least for
the price :).

Both load files in a variety of encodings. NPP will save in any of them,
while BP saves to Unicode encodings only. Both are very aware of BOMs.
NPP allows you to convert line-ending style at any time; BP allows this
at save time. I don't know how well either one handles a file with a
mixture of LF and CRLF.
