HELP: Text editor that deals with BOM very well

Hello everyone,

Just need to ask a simple question, where can a find a text editor that
deals with byte order mark very well?
I've been using dreamweaver for a few years now but im not impressed by how
it deals with BOM. i need a text editor that can view a bom and can remove
it from the file and still save it as utf8.
any suggestions?

I'll second the jEdit recommend. I've been using it for at least a year
now and am quite happy.

I have a client who deals with his own front-end stuff and the BOM
problem with HomeSite has bitten us more than once.
