That goal is what I had in mind when I wrote the UTF8 class, and its bidirectional conversions to and from wxString. I think you can pass instances of UTF8 to wx functions in many cases, and assign to UTF8 on function returns. But, you don't have all the nice translation support there. You could through use wx translation support and simply assign to UTF8, however. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
