The easiest way I found for this is #!/usr/bin/env bash #Add BOM to the new file printf ‘\xEF\xBB\xBF’ > with_bom.txt # Append the content of the source file to the new file cat source_file.txt >> with_bom.txt I know it uses an external program (cat)… but it will do the job easily in bash Tested on … Read more
# vim file.xml :set nobomb :wq
you would use the following code to remove utf8 bom //Remove UTF8 Bom function remove_utf8_bom($text) { $bom = pack(‘H*’,’EFBBBF’); $text = preg_replace(“/^$bom/”, ”, $text); return $text; }
Well it writes the BOM because you are instructing it to, in the line Encoding utf8WithoutBom = new UTF8Encoding(true); true means that the BOM should be emitted, using Encoding utf8WithoutBom = new UTF8Encoding(encoderShouldEmitUTF8Identifier: false); writes no BOM. My objective is create a file using UTF-8 as Encoding and 8859-1 as CharSet Sadly, this is not … Read more
You can’t depend on the file having a BOM. UTF-8 doesn’t require it. And non-Unicode encodings don’t even have a BOM. There are, however, other ways to detect the encoding. UTF-32 BOM is 00 00 FE FF (for BE) or FF FE 00 00 (for LE). But UTF-32 is easy to detect even without a … Read more
Prepend \ufeff to the string. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/2yfce773(v=vs.94).aspx See discussion between @jeff-fischer and @casey for details on UTF-8 and UTF-16 and the BOM. What actually makes the above work is that the string \ufeff is always used to represent the BOM, regardless of UTF-8 or UTF-16 being used. See p.36 in The Unicode Standard 5.0, Chapter … Read more
Simply use the “utf-8-sig” codec: fp = open(“file.txt”) s = fp.read() u = s.decode(“utf-8-sig”) That gives you a unicode string without the BOM. You can then use s = u.encode(“utf-8”) to get a normal UTF-8 encoded string back in s. If your files are big, then you should avoid reading them all into memory. The … Read more

Using GNU sed (on Linux or Cygwin): # Removing BOM from all text files in current directory: sed -i ‘1 s/^\xef\xbb\xbf//’ *.txt On FreeBSD: sed -i .bak ‘1 s/^\xef\xbb\xbf//’ *.txt Advantage of using GNU or FreeBSD sed: the -i parameter means “in place”, and will update files without the need for redirections or weird tricks. … Read more
In order to omit the byte order mark (BOM), your stream must use an instance of UTF8Encoding other than System.Text.Encoding.UTF8 (which is configured to generate a BOM). There are two easy ways to do this: 1. Explicitly specifying a suitable encoding: Call the UTF8Encoding constructor with False for the encoderShouldEmitUTF8Identifier parameter. Pass the UTF8Encoding instance … Read more
