Hmm, what does it take to write an editor that supports Unicode? I've been
meaning to write an editor for some time now, just that there isn't much
motivation when there are countless other half-done GPL editors out there
sitting unused, or little-used. But if there really is a need for Unicode
support, I'll be happy to get cracking.
