Subject: bug#56675: UTF16 encoding adds BOM before every single character
Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2022 23:39:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bac17cbb-53db-c644-e16e-f9f3faa3e10e@abou-samra.fr> (raw)
With this code:
(let ((p (open-output-file "x.txt")))
(set-port-encoding! p "UTF16")
(display "ABC" p)
(close-port p))
the sequence of bytes in the output file x.txt is
['FF', 'FE', '41', '0', 'FF', 'FE', '42', '0', 'FF', 'FE', '43', '0']
As you can see, a BOM is being added before every
single character instead of just at the beginning.
