Sorry - I screwed up. I missed your earlier patch (if
pywin.is_platform_unicode, in interact.py). BTW, that patch as given
doesn't work (pywin doesn't have an attribute is_platform_unicode) I
did "from pywin.scintilla.view import is_platform_unicode" at the top,
and then used "if is_platform"unicode".

With the patch, my example works as expected. Sorry for the false
alarm...

Paul.
