I don't know how to do that though.
I do - at least partly. ;-) There are two issues there: 1) You must differentiate between different internally used ways how to store Unicode characters. Especially, you need to ensure that UTF-8 source is translated to a "proper" widestring during compilation. 2) You need to know the charset used for video output and translate on the fly where needed. The notorious "Video unit rewrite" (still unfinished because of other activities like release coordination ;-) ) is supposed to provide such a possibility (together with an option to use regular Write(Ln) after incorporating the rewritten unit Crt).
