"Edit New Name" Unicode Bug

I'm not entirely sure if this is an error, though I'm assuming this is since ReNamer has otherwise quite good Unicode support.

Let's say that, after clicking the Preview button, you end up with a filename using non-Ansi characters. Then select "Edit New Name" from the right click menu, or press F2. The previewed name gets implicitly converted to Ansi (turning any characters outside of that character range into ?s). Further, if any editing is actually performed on this name, you get stuck with those question marks as being part of the filename.

You can at least undo the damage by hitting the Preview button again, but you should be allowed to edit the names without getting an implicit Unicode-to-Ansi conversion.

Re: "Edit New Name" Unicode Bug

Sorry, my bad. I forgot to reset the Unicode flag in that manual editor, after I updated the component for files table.

Latest development version has it fixed: ReNamerBeta.zip
