What version of wxWidgets are you using? 2.8 or 2.9
I have not done much with multibyte chars other than try to convert
them to and from Lua's 8 bit strings. There was some work done on this
years ago and it should still work, but of course the limitation is
that Lua itself is not multibyte. wxWidgets 2.9 uses UTF8 for it's
strings while 2.8 used UTF16, if I remember correctly, for the MSW
Unicode builds.
What is the text that you are trying to use?
