Dick,
First off all, tanks you for all this work.

(const char*) aFileName.fn_str() creates an issue under Windows (tested with wxWidgets 2.9.3)

I am thinking it returns a string of 16 bits wchars, not compatible with 8 bits chars,
at least under Windows.
I do not know why it works under Linux, and not under Windows.

(const char*)aFileName.char_str( wxConvFile ) works fine for me under Windows and Linux
(tested with filenames using non ascii chars).


Here is my patch:
