--- Comment #3 from Merlijn van Deen valhallasw@arctus.nl --- Note that pwb.py in compat does not quite do what you expect it to do... (i.e. it's completely unrelated to pwb.py in core)
And no, I don't think there's something like that in compat; I added it to core when I added Windows unicode command line argument support.
