Yup, and let me just add another goody : Jedit - a popular Japanese text
editor (shareware). Jedit detects the type of encoding and line break at
opeing files and can convert it to mac text (SJIS+CR). At saving files,
conversly, it allows you to convert to any other combination of encoding
and line break (EUC+LF for Unix, SJIS+CRLF for dos, etc). It also has
strong regexp find & replace, which might be convenient when writing perl
code.

Jedit has now been upgraded to Jedit2, far more enhanced than ever including
Unicode support and 2-byte regexp etc.

It's available in:
