Sorry, I lapsed into acronym-ese.

BOM is 'byte-order mark' - it is a small sequence of bytes at the start of a Unicode text file to identify the specific Unicode encoding used (UTF-8, UTF-16 big endian, UTF-16 little endian, UTF-32). Most text editors will let you specify whether or not to include this when you save the file. In theory, programs that accept Unicode text file input should read these bytes and use them to interpret the rest of the content properly. But some will assume it is a particular encoding and get confused by BOMs. So it may take some experimentation to discover what works.
