[sword-devel] Win32 FileMgr Subclass

Tobias,

Has this been tested with file paths that contain characters outside of the
basic ASCII code range? That's where current Sword fails. Not in fetching
the data for the paths themselves, but the actual calls to fopen and
friends, on Windows, do not understand non ASCII data.

It looks like your code would suffer similar to other Sword code, which
eventually passes through the library's fopen calls.
