Not very sure what you mean. Any file saved with a text editor (and as far as I know, doesn't even matter which text editor are we talking about) MUST be encoded. For rainmeter ANSI is the best, but not the only encoding.

I think hjz91207 is asking if is possible to apply a document protection... :???:

There is not. There is no way to encrypt or otherwise protect skin code from the view and complete control of those who use it. Nor would we ever, ever be interested in having such...
