I don't like using the MSLU because its a dependency that up until now SQLite

to the sqlite DLL.

I very much agree with Robert for the reasons he has given. The beauty of 
SQLite is that it is simple and small. Linking to a non OS dependencies would 
take that beauty away.

The approach of the latest os_win.c is absolutely correct and a standard 
procedure for all cross-Windows applications with Unicode support, even 
Microsoft's. It just needs a few improvements to get it working reliably on 
Win95. The Win95 Unicode deficiencies are part of that system and there is 
nothing SQLite can do about it.

Please keep SQLite simple and small and do not add additional dependencies!

Ralf

I strongly support this request. Really: the strength and beauty of sqlite is that I can produce a standalone binary which does not require any system-dependent installation, just copy! PLEASE don't give this away!

 Dirk
