We have some older files we are maintaining and they are coded in the old DOS/OEM code page, which includes some line drawing characters and international symbols (e.g., accented letters).
Beyond Compare fails to detect the proper code page, though it will display the right stuff if manually set to DOS/OEM. Instead, it shows a red X and a "File Encoding Error", as illustrated here:

Encoding (in this case for .BAS files) is set to "Detect".
This is what it should look like, with the DOS/OEM encoding:
