Do you access the string's internal structure? Do you write the string to
file directly instead of taking its content? If not, then nothing you have
to worry about. Standard string operations work the same for all string
type.

Windows supports wide characters, I don't know the encoding but it's likely
UTF-8 is at least in the subset. I suggest using UTF8 all the time.
1: You don't have to worry about it if in the future you need to support
UTF-8 characters
2: It does not hurt your current program
