If 5 levels is not deep enough, you can use a simple Python function to do it:
BEGIN PROGRAM.
import codecs, locale
import spss
def insert(syntax):
encoding = locale.getdefaultlocale()[1]
f = codecs.open(syntax, encoding=encoding):
if f.read().startswith(codecs.BOM_UTF8):
f.close()
f = codecs.open(syntax, encoding="utf-8"):
spss.Submit(f.read().lstrip(codecs.BOM_UTF8))
insert(r"c:\blah.sps")END PROGRAM.

All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a
fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
