Adrian,
	Thanks for the detailed bug report.  It's probably a simple fix and a 
blockheaded error on my part.  I would bet I'm not even trying to do a 
utf8towide conversion on read of the .conf file but I am doing the 
conversion on save (or vice versa)  I'll try to get a fixed version for 
you quickly.

	-Troy.
