// Package utfutil provides methods that make it easy to read data in an UTF-encoding agnostic.
package utfutil
// These functions autodetect UTF BOM and return UTF-8. If no
// BOM is found, a hint is provided as to which encoding to assume.
// You can use them as replacements for os.Open() and ioutil.ReadFile()
// when the encoding of the file is unknown.
// utfutil.OpenFile() is a replacement for os.Open().
// utfutil.ReadFile() is a replacement for ioutil.ReadFile().
// utfutil.NewScanner() takes a filename and returns a Scanner.
// utfutil.NewReader() rewraps an existing scanner to make it UTF-encoding agnostic.
// utfutil.BytesReader() takes a []byte and decodes it to UTF-8.
// Since it is impossible to guess 100% correctly if there is no BOM,
// the functions take a 2nd parameter of type "EncodingHint" where you
// specify the default encoding for BOM-less data.
// If someone writes a golang equivalent of uchatdet, I'll add
// a hint called "AUTO" which uses it.
// Inspiration: I wrote this after spending half a day trying
// to figure out how to use unicode.BOMOverride.
// Hopefully this will save other golang newbies from the same.
