Don't edit text files for UNIX in notepad. If you'd been editing them in UNIX you'd have seen those characters; they're what Notepad inserts at the beginning of Unicode text files to warn itself that they're unicode(UTF8 in this case), and that's what's messing up your comparison.

I extract those from a file i download from a website, when downloaded the file is ISO-8859-1 i use:

Code:

vim +"set bomb | set fileencoding=utf-8 | wq" $(find . -type f -name info.txt)

to change to UTF8
