FMSLogo-Unicode for Windows / Linux / MacOSX

The original FMSLogo is based on ANSI/MBCS encoding.
And there are some serious issues when you code in local language, e.g. comments written in your own language
which is not ANSI encoding could not be preserved during save/load cycles.

The improvement seems minimal, however, it's huge work because you have to rewrite almost every
corner of the program to ensure the encoding is correct.

Besides, the port of the original Windows version to other platforms takes much effort,
and not fully functional yet.

Best Regars,

NOTICE on compiling on Windows:
Both fmslogo-unicode and wxWidgets can be compiled with toolset 
Visual Studio 2017 - Windows XP (v141_xp) -- for old machines such as xp
and the RuntimeLibrary mode should be set to MT (multi-threading) or MTd (for debug). 

NOT MD (multi-threading DLL) or MDd (for debug).

Put wxWidgets into D:\wxWidgets if you don't want to change settings of the project.
If any error about WEBKIT, just simply disable by 
#define wxUSE_WEBVIEW 0
before #if 
since it's faulty and we don't need web browser control at all.
