--------------------------------------------

Hi Mailmur.  I'm going through some old issues.  Thanks for contributing this.  
Sorry it's been such a long time.

Would you be willing to place this code (or a link to your web page) on the 
Velocity wiki?  That's a good place for user contributed code.  I'm thinking 
that this might be too specialized for incorporation into the Velocity engine 
itself.  But it'd be nice to make this more prominent for users who might need 
such a solution.

Let us know.  If that's ok with you I'll resolve this issue.

> Subject: UnicodeFileResourceLoader to support Win2k Notepad UTF-8 files
> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
> I discovered, that files saved with Win2k Notepad UTF-8 format always 
> generated 
> an extra ? character at the start of ISO-8859-1 output text. 
> This was due to lack of UTF8 BOM mark support in 
> InputStreamReader/OutputStreamWriter classes.
> I then created a inputstream implementation to skip BOM mark to overcome this 
> bug.
> Please, find here a source + testprogram to see it for yourself. I created 
> UnicodeFileResourceLoader to make all this transparent.

> I dont know what is the proper procedure to add this to Velocity core (if you 
> find this useful), but here it is. Feel free to change class package. Or is 
> this even the right list to announce such addition....
