Remove BOM(Byte Order Marker) from UTF-8 files.

Remove BOM(Byte Order Marker) from UTF-8 files.

Wrote this because I had some legacy source codes of several Android projects in UTF-8 with BOM, but couldn't find any software to do batching BOM removing operations on MAC OS or Windows.

##Usage

bs.py [-h] [--type TYPE] path

    path: path of the target folder or file

    -h, --help: show this help message and exit

    --type TYPE: file type， if assign the file type, only this type's file will be converted.

###Examples

Convert all files under a folder:

    python bs.py /path/to/the/target/folder

Convert all java files under a folder:

    python bs.py /path/to/the/target/folder --type java

Convert single file:

    python bs.py /path/to/the/target/filename
