Using the option 2) the Edit->File Encoding menu is showing (correctly) ASCII(ISO-8859-1) but no characters are present.
I think is a bug of the latest related feature added just before the nightly.
This bug has been fixed in revision 5436. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Patch to fix Windows NON-PCH compile.
Applied. Thanks for your patch.
This bug still exists in this nightly build. I have reported in this thread:

Please set your default or fallback encoding to Windows-1252 or ISO-8859-1. That file can't be opened using UTF-8 (possibly due to some malformed characters) or Windows-936 (which seems to be default encoding in your PC).
As a note, UTF-8 can open certain Windows-1252 or ISO-8859-1 (also known as ASCII file) encoded files. However this is not true in all cases. UTF-8 encoded characters have a unique signature which may not be present in all ASCII files.
And in the dialog the option 2 "As default encoding" button is beyond it's static box of "Use this encoding".
This works fine in my PC. Has anyone noticed this bug??
No changes to the project templates (for e.g. wxWidgets) yet, unfortunately.
Are you referring about the update I was working on?? If yes, then I must apologise to all as I could not finish it due time constraint and personal commitments.
