OK...you can find everyting you need for the Unicode Windows VM here...
http://users.kef.sch.gr/chrispetsos/WindowsUnicodeVM.zip
I did a few fixes to the code i posted yesterday... The zip has installation notes but I will also paste them here so that anyone can google-find various terms used there...
------------------------------- INSTALLATION NOTES ----------------------------------------- "You should be using the Unicode/UTF8 VM... SqueakUnicodeUTF8.exe" "I tested it on the latest eToys image for OLPC."
"Let's start..."
"Drag 'n Drop UnicodeEnvironment.cs -> fileIn entire file"
"Drag 'n Drop GreekEnvironment.cs -> fileIn entire file."
"Execute this*" Locale currentPlatform: (Locale localeID: (LocaleID isoString: 'el')).
"Drag 'n Drop TTFUnicodeFix.cs -> fileIn entire file."
"Drag 'n Drop your favourite TT Unicode font."
"Now you should have a new font installed." "Highlight a text." "Hit Alt+k and select your new font"
" Well...that was it...type in your locale's specific unicode characters and see them getting rendered with a beautiful TT unicode font. "
"Now, this version should be working OK for other languages too." "Please feel free to test it for other languages and other image versions too..."
" So, now... 1) you have a VM that is sending unicode chars to eToys (thanks to Diomidis Spinellis...) 2) you have a fixed Unicode font support (thanks to Bert Freudenberg...) 3) you have UTF-8 clipboard functionality (thanks to me!...and all the Vm-dev support @:) ) 4) you have a unicode environment inside the image (thanks to me again of course!) ;-) "
" Ok...enough with happy talking...any problems that you'll encounter (hope you won't) please post them up... "
"*To execute: (Highlight -> Alt+d)"

OK, my beautiful MS Outlook Express did something nasty with the URL link... Please copy/paste this URL to your web browser...

Thanks guys. I have integrated your changes (while tidying them up a little and fixing a few bugs) in the mainstream VM sources at SqueakVM.org. I've also done a quick pass over the file and directory primitives (which now also take UTF-8 input) so if you could give this a try to see if it works that would be great. The result is an experimental VM here:
http://www.squeakvm.org/win32/release/SqueakVM-Win32-3.10.1-bin.zip http://www.squeakvm.org/win32/release/SqueakVM-Win32-3.10.1-src.zip
Let me know if (with your image-side fixes on top) this VM behaves correctly.
Cheers, - Andreas
