[wxhaskell-users] why no unicode support?

[Eric Y. K. <Eri...@lo...>]

Hi list,

I would like to make wxhaskell work with Unicode. =20

The problem is that I am not really a C++ hacker, so I don't actually
know what I'm getting myself into.  Could somebody tell me if there's a
deep reason why wxhaskell does not support Unicode?  That is, am I in
over my head?

I'm currently working with this page from the manual, dumbly converting
chars to wxChar and wrapping string literals with wxT():
 http://www.wxwidgets.org/manuals/2.6.0/wx_unicode.html

Thanks,

--eric

P.S. I am doing this mainly because I want to get wxhaskell to compile
     against the wxWidgets that ships with MacOS X (Tiger), so that I
     can write darwinports Portfile for it.   Any help on that
     appreciated too.
