Dear Heiko,
IA now uses UTF-8 (w BOM) Unicode encoding with text files, consequently the first three bytes are: 0xEF,0xBB,0xBF (=BOM) ... and not a bug.

Re: IA18: Control Characters in first line (Write into file)
How can I avoid that? Because I am writing Batch files with Content e.g
rename
miabuild
copy
...
and commands with that 0xEF,0xBB,0xBF are not working.
Okay I can write a dummy line at first with cls for example...but this is not the real solution for me

Dear Heiko,
...with adding an empty single "dummy" string line at the beginning of your file, it should work.
