Of course it doesn't make the whole OS UNICODE, 
it only adds a (transparent) layer of *W() 
functions which make the conversion and pass the 
call to *A() functions.

It's supposed to be transparent. Well, it depends 
on what you mean by "transparent" here. It doesn't 
need any code change in source code, all you have 
to do is link one static library.

Brgds,
