Well, I know MinED and it certainly supports unicode very well - but not in the DOS version. MidED relies to terminal services of the operating system. It works nice in Linux and in Windows because their terminal windows support unicode chars. But in DOS the screen uses the VGA memory layout, VGA fonts, etc.
So yes, even in the DOS version can MinED somehow internaly work with unicode but it is not able to dislay more than 256 chars.
