on linux you may use iconv tool:
$ iconv -f UTF8 file.go 2>&1 | tail -1
It will exit on the offending character with 'illegal input sequence at
position' message. Usually somewhere in the middle, so watch the
message line for 'iconv' string.
Eg:
badutf := []rune("abciconv: illegal input sequence at position
badutf := []rune("abc^-here
P.S. If you need line numbers you may annotate input with grep:
$ grep -n file.go | iconv -f utf7 2>&1 | tail -1
Hope this helps,
