Detect file's encoding
When you load a file, if it has an encoding other than UTF-8, a list of possible encodings shows up and you can open the file with the proper encoding.

Handy Find and Replace Tool
You can find multi-line expressions and replace them with another expression. If you are typing in Arabic or Persian languages, you can keep 'Match Alef Hamza' unckecked so search would be more flexible.
