RE: Re: "Save to Clipboard" including BOM marker

Gavin,

As I understand it, the problem in this case was that the CF_TEXT format was lossy when dealing with the BOM. The CF_UNICODETEXT format is not lossy. As long as the application pasting from the clipboard knows to favor CF_UNICODETEXT, the problem goes away. As I noted earlier, Notepad, Notepad++, IE, and Chrome all know to favor CF_UNICODETEXT.

My guess is that you could now include BOM content in the changed (+ or -) part of the diff now as well. I haven't bothered to test that because it's a very uncommon scenario.
