Working with utf-8 files in Eclipse.

Quite straight forward question. Is there a way to configure Eclipse to work with text files encoded with utf-8 with and without the BOM? So far I've used eclipse with utf-8 encoding and it works, but when I try to edit a file generated by another editor that includes the BOM, Eclipse doesn't handle it properly, it 'shows an invisible c...

UTF-8 BOM in php response to mootools xmlhttprequest

Hi, I'm writing my first little AJAX-enabled Joomla component. I'm using mootools. I got a xmlhttprequest to contact my Joomla component, and the component returns a response - just plain text echoed by php, like echo 'Hello World!'; It's all working fine, except wireshark tells me that the response is prepended with \357\273\277\35...

Add a custom tool to toolchain to remove UTF-8 BOM before compile

My question is in the context of Code::Blocks and its tweaked version of MinGW, and Notepad++ . I want to be able to include Unicode literals in my source, and I can, so long as I use UTF-8 and not use a BOM. This works fine, up to a point, but it BOMs out (bad pun) whenever I reopen the file; it (not surprisingly) has this un-nerving ...

Adding BOM to UTF-8 files

Hello, I'm searching (without success) a script, which would work as a batch file and allow me to prepend a UTF-8 text file with a BOM if it doesn't have one. Neither the language it is written in (perl, python, c, bash) or the OS it works on matters to me. I have access to a wide range of computers. I've found a lot of script to do t...

How do I remove  from the beginning of a file?

I have a CSS file that looks fine when I open it using gedit, but when it's read by PHP (to merge all the CSS files into one), this CSS has the following chars prepended to it:  PHP removes all whitespace, so a random  in the middle of the code messes up the entire thing. As I mentioned, I can't actually see these chars when I ope...

Unexpected output on file include

I've been working on a custom CMS in PHP and haven't run into any problems until recently. When testing, I've noticed that the string  has started appearing at the top of only the index page. Testing with some die statements throughout the code, it seems the output is coming between a file include. File A <?php if (!defined('IN_CM...

Removing byte-order marks (BOMs) using Emacs

I have a file containing UTF-8 encoded text with a byte-order mark. This BOM is getting in the way of things, and I'd like to remove it. Resorting to either other tools, such as perl or awk, or weird editing modes, such as hexl-mode, every time I want to get rid of a BOM is somewhat annoying. Is there a way to tell Emacs to remove the ...
