Of course, I'm speaking about future functionality as it currently doesn't support unicode source text.
I think we agreed that we'd eventually use something like http://site.icu-project.org/ to handle the unicode implementation in the backend. Technically, Euphoria already has limited UTF-8 support as source text (though not for routine/variable names), but none at all for UTF-32 or UTF-16 encoded files.
Of course, if someone needs to have the capability to do unicode conversion "right now", they can use and adapt http://scm.openeuphoria.org/hg/euphoria/file/9ab1491bf4a0/include/std/unicode.e (written by Derek) to suit their needs.
