Subject: Questions about coding utf-8-with-signature
Date: Fri, 02 Feb 2024 18:22:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <86zfwivl19.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

What exactly is the expected behavior for coding
utf-8-with-signature?

  - if I understood correctly the BOM is a zero width no-break space
    character that can be inserted directly
    
  - whether or not to force the utf-8-with-signature encoding before
    saving the buffer has no impact on the bom

  - load-file with a source file in UTF-8 with BOM causes an error
