Windows NT has two versions of most APIs – ANSI and Unicode. When given an
unicode()
object as the file name, Python uses the Unicode APIs, removing the need for manual filename encoding. (In fact, the manual encoding breaks things in such cases as, for example, Japanese or Korean names on an English system.)
