Re: Engine - Teds initial take

 

(still on vacation... just poking my nose in).

I had no particular opinion [ _T("") vs L"" ] but I do like the idea that perhaps we should explicitly NOT support ANSI. I can't see a really good reason to support ANSI either, and frankly I like the idea that we should do what it takes to make it hard to do so.

That's a pretty poor reason to not type a few extra characters... but I can't offer a concrete reason why we should support ANSI.
