Seen with a .cs file (from windows) Not sure why, investigate

Seem term impl of ui.Render() never terminates, other events are still received.

Turns out the (windows) file has some weird crap at the beginning ef bb bf 0a (magic??) that's causing termbox.flush to hang

Turns out it's a "byte order mark" signature https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark

Guess those should just not be rendered or rendered as "?" or whatever, or maybe just get rid of it at it's pretty useless and troublesome in general.

Fixed by stripping those out as they mostly cause problems.
