You can easily remove the BOM from a UTF-8 text file.
Windows users can make use of the free version of http://www.unipad.org/ SC
Unipad .
This application can also convert from UTF-8 to UTF-16 etc and vice versa.
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/ Notepad++ can also do these
conversions.
Wolfgang,
I guess I wasn't clear enough. I think all detected errors should
produce a message. And what I didn't say, but meant to, was that I'll
output an error message for an unsupported BOM.

The BOM in UTF-8 is generally a Windows-ism. No
Actually, if I would have read down further, it explicitly says "Yes,
UTF-8 can contain a BOM. However, it makes no difference as to the
endianness of the byte stream. UTF-8 always has the same byte order.
An initial BOM is only used as a signature — an indication that an

What does a byte order mark mean for a UTF-8 fi
