Question
How to handle Wide characters(unicode characters)?
How to read and write using printf and scanf functions?

Answer
To handle widechars, you will have to use 2 bytes variable as widechar variables.
S, it's better to have a typedef (Usually "short int" type is of 2 bytes) and use that as widechar.
For reading and writing from that variable, you can use scanf() and also printf(). But, you will have to properly interpret the values and do all the modifications yourself.
