contained it when it was loaded into the editor. If so, the BOM
will be written to the file irrespective of the setting. The BOM
is an industry standard indicating the contents of the file for
various UNICODE formats. This is set be default internally.

the Byte Order Mark (BOM) header in a file when it is saved if the
file is a new file created within UltraEdit. If the Write UTF-8 BOM
setting above is set, then the BOM will always be written and this is
