Unicode.

No. The Unicode version allows the underlying wxWidgets GUI toolkit to
use Unicode text. You want this.

On certain platforms, older versions of the unicode version of wxPython
were somewhat unstable. I believe this has been largely resolved, and
the ANSI versions will be going away.

I may have some details wrong. If you want an authoritative answer, ask
on the wxPython lists.
