Quick question: is there any way to make grep (or one of its siblings) find a character that I cannot type on my keyboard? Specifically, I need to search hundreds of PHP files for the dreaded Unicode Byte Order Mark. This is three characters that I cannot easily create on my keyboard to set up a search on my client's site (via cPanel > cron). Can grep be told to use some form of \nnn or \u+nnnn or something? I can't find any such information in my books or online. If grep cannot be told to do this, is my only way out to dump each file with od and then grep that? Thanks!
