I don't have time to read this now, but this was just posted on the
wx-users mailing list in response to this message "Using Chinese (not
i18n)".

Maybe the programs wxluafreeze, wxlua, etc need to have command line
switches to allow you to specify ASCII, UTF8, etc. I think the problem
with the copyright symbol is that the UTF8 converter gags on it, but
happily passes though 7-bit ASCII.  For most purposes the converter is
transparent, but it does the wrong thing for 8-bit ASCII.
