Operating Systems OS X (Apple) Changing txt files to pure UTF-8 Post 302772020 by sovdia on Friday 22nd of February 2013 12:26:36 PM

Changing txt files to pure UTF-8

I have two Macs running 10.7.5.

We download .txt files from remote site to these local Macs using 'rsync -e ssh -avz...'.

The files on Mac1 are in the required format of pure UTF-8. The files on Mac2 are in UTF-8 (no BOM) which is wrong format for us; these formats are indicated using BBEdit.

Is there a Unix instruction to correct this or an instruction we can pass to rysnc?
