Nope, Unicode isn't supported for Classic, it is supported on Win32 
however, I just had to go through more than 100.000 lines of code 
(pretty big project) converting between ISO-Latin-1 (to store it in 
my Valentina datafile) and UTF-8 (when populating from my Valentina 
datafile) as the current version doesn't support Unicode. Otherwise 
you get garbage characters and broken code all around, so it's 
definitely supported on Windows compiles.
