Yes, that will work now.  I sort of got pushed into it.  I wanted to be 
able to support the wxWidgets that is supplied by Ubuntu, which happens
to be a unicode build.  At first, I used the unicode build, but didn't
really allow using it.  Then it occurred to me that it would actually be
easier using wide characters, since they correspond 1-1 with the 
elements of a sequence.

It required some really simple changes, so it seemed silly not to do so 
with windows as well (which previously wasn't built with unicode).
