If we were to ignore the BOM, then at least we should check that they match UTF-8, and reject the file otherwise? FWIW, the D compilers for instance obey these BOM, including for other codings than UTF-8. _______________________________________________ help-bison@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-bison
