I just have the defaults. As I rarely edit non-English files, I've never
felt the need to add in any other encodings.

The "if file's encoding can't be guessed" setting may well be different
for you. If you open files that are likely to have been edited in another
Mac editor, then I'd probably recommend "Western (Mac OS Roman)" or if
Windows, "Western (Windows Latin 1)". I mostly open files that I've been
editing in Nedit on my Linux box, so ISO encoding works best for me.
The "Honor Saved State" settings are a matter of personal taste.
The reason for enforcing a new line character at the end of each file is
to play nice with command line tools like "cat". Also, "gcc" balks at
files that don't end with a new line character, not that I do an awful lot
of C programming.
