of course, we can't change CString functions - they are used in many
other places :)  implementation just should use other functions.
again, you may look on my Win32Files module. ideal Files module
should at compile time select between unix/mac/win versions and on
windows at runtime select between wide/legacy versions. also, i hope
that it will support UTF8- and UTF16-encoded bytestrings as filenames
because this allows to save time/space and absolutely required for
programs that work with many thousands of files
