Subject: Re: Reading UTF-8 Data contains BOM

additional questions did arise during my first experiments.

How does Ruby 1.9 recognize a File-Encoding (if it will be done)? - Or how can I 
specify the expected encoding while opening a file?

This does affect ignorable bytes like BOM too, because in a binary mode they are 
data.
