[encoding] Set Encoding of File to UTF8 With BOM in Sublime Text 3

When I open a file in Sublime Text 3, at the bottom I have an option to set the Character Encoding as shown in the screenshot.

setting encoding

There is the option to set it to UTF-8 , which after doing some research means UTF-8 Without BOM, but I want to set it to UTF-8 With BOM like shown below:

UTF-8 with BOM

How can I do this from within ST3?

The answer is

Into the Preferences > Setting - Default

You will have the next by default:

// Display file encoding in the status bar
    "show_encoding": false

You could change it or like cdesmetz said set your user settings.

Into Preferences > Settings - Users
File : Preferences.sublime-settings

Write this :

"show_encoding" : true,

It's explain on the release note date 17 December 2013. Build 3059. Official site Sublime Text 3

By default, Sublime Text set 'UTF8 without BOM', but that wasn't specified.

The only specicified things is 'UTF8 with BOM'.

Hope this help :)
