    MvV> Hello Chris,

    MvV> Notepad handles UTF-8 quit well but the last time I tried it as   
    MvV> external editor for Golded it insisted on adding a BOM to the message   
    MvV> text. That was many years ago so maybe newer versions of notepad do not   
    MvV> do that anymore. Adding or using a BOM in UTF-8 text is considered   
    MvV> obsolete practise.   
      
   Here, on Windos 11, Notepad does not require a BOM.
