Hi, is there any way to detect BOM in a file? I'm writing a parser which outputs a number line if there's an error in it and its content. Every time it parser a file saved in UTF-8 with BOM it outputs those three magic letters. Can I pre-check for it and skip it? Or convert somehow? Greetings, Leszek Stachowski
