Channeling unicode text experts and xml people:
I have xml entity with initial bytes ff fe ff fe which the file command says is
UTF-16, little-endian text.
I agree, but what should be done about the additional BOM.
A test output made many years ago seems to keep the extra BOM. The xml context

By the rules of Unicode, that character, if not the very first character of the
file, should be treated as a “zero-width non-breaking space”, it is NOT a BOM
character there.
It’s presence in the files is almost certainly an error, and being caused by
broken software or software processing file
Woa! The JavaScript JIT compiler is quite impressive. I now
ported Dogelog runtime to Python as well, so that I can compare
JavaScript and Python, and tested without clause indexing:
between(L,H,L) :- L =< H.
between(L,H,X) :- L < H, Y is L+1, between(Y,H,X).
setup :- between(1,255,N), M is N//2
Thats a factor 37.8 faster! I tested the a variant of
the Albufeira instructions Prolog VM aka ZIP, which
was also the inspiration for SWI-Prolog.
