You can both read and display Unicode characters in QB64 by using Win32 API. You'd need to use the "W" variant functions. I've used a lot of Unicode strings in QB64. Asian characters, especially. That isn't to say I was handling keyboard input or anything like that but I was both reading and displaying them (Unicode strings) properly. They're just a pain in the butt and can lead to crashes and memory leaks since QB64 isn't designed to handle them. You have to manage them with great care. I think I'd need you to write up a bit of pseudo code for your program's logic so I could better understand what it is you are needing on the Unicode side. Then I might be able to get you started.
