Hi,

For our embedded IronPython, we need to convert python scripts from string to 
files and back. To do that, I need to know the encoding of the python source 
for both ways, if there's one specified according to PEP 0263. (Our intended 
fallback is to UTF8 with BOM if none is specified.)

Are there any public utility functions in IronPython I can call to detect 
encoding markers in files and in strings?

Python 3 has a "detect_encoding" function in the tokenize module that does this. You could copy and reuse that.
