I know this is not a ‘real’ programming question. But, it relates to programming so I am going to set it anyway. I have a program that I need to test that reads the Byte Order Marker of the file to see if it is utf-8 or utf-16. My problem is I cannot find a program/text editor that will allow me to set the byte order marker. Can anybody tell me how to set this in a text file?
There is a pretty good program called BabelPad. It will not only set the BOM, I believe it will also tel you if it is set or not. You can also do it programmitically in .Net. There is a good FAQ about this on MSN.
