Hi Dick/Wayne-

Apologies that I somehow missed this question. Here are the answers to Dick's two questions

1) xWX2MB() from wxWidgets strconv.cpp converts wchar via wxDecodeSurrogate which returns UTF-32 before conversion back to UTF-8.

2) We allow the multi-try conversion as the first step is lossless and the second step is lossy, converting invalid chars to their octal representation. They both call the same underlying routines.

This has changed a bit since you wrote the first message, so please have a look and see if you have any additional questions. I'll do my best to not overlook the message.
