Hi Charles,
the unicode RE works quite nice with my system. The short cut keys ctrl-a (select all), del (delete), ctrl-c (copy), ctrl-v (paste) work like expected. Did you know that it is possible to paste images into the RE? I did not, but I noticed that you loaded msftedit.dll, so I tried this.
It does not matter in this case, but you included WinUtil, FileDialogs which apply ansi functions. I assume that to get the most benefit it will be necessary to adapt these functions too?
