VC allows for a TCHAR* command line string.

I have to consider this. An obvious approach would be to add template
parameter to every class, telling which char type to use. So investigation
is needed to find alternatives --- making everything a template would
conflict with ability to compiler everything as shared library.



I don't think we need a template param.
Just something like 'boost::program_options::char_type', which is by default
char, and can be changed.


It's not like we have multiple command lines or something ;-)

We could have some programs that use plain ASCII characters, and some programs that want to support Unicode filenames. We should thus still have support for both narrow and wide characters, and not just one character type.
