You need to invoke "nedit" from a context in which the LANG
environment variable is non-UTF8.  You can do this in your
login files (if you want this behavior globally), or else
define an script with contents like

    #! /bin/csh -f
    setenv LANG en_US
    nedit $* &'

which launches nedit with the rest of the command line arguments,
in a non-UTF8 environment.
