I just studied the source code more carefully and found that the DIR & 
LIST procedures always return the results in EBCDIC, by the use of 
wk_XlatHack, thus one does not need to worry about the local code page.

Also, I think I can change the program in rather short time to handle 
UTF-8/16 conversions safely. Will require some internal changes, but 
should not change the API itself.
