Thanks again, Stephanie. The problem was indeed the U+FEFF or BOM
character lurking somewhere in the file. I thought I'd removed it
with the command I usually use: <br>
<pre>sed -i '1s/^\xEF\xBB\xBF//' myfile.txt</pre>
until I realised that this is only any good before concatenating the
files (as it only targets the first line). So I tried <br>
<pre>sed -i 's/^\xEF\xBB\xBF//g' myfile.txt</pre>
and things worked from that point on!<br>
Best,<br>
Graham.<br>

Many thanks for your help. Unfortunately, that didn't work... I've just checked: my XML tags are on different lines (though I would hope that would not make a difference) and the only spaces in the file are in the XML tag between "text" and "id".

If you can access the CWB-indexed corpus (or index it yourself on the command-line with cwb-encode and cwb-make), then you could find the location of the problem with a CQP query
[ ! text_id ];
Best,
Stephanie
