Why don't you just use dll plugin then? Here is a sample script:
----------------------- UTF8.PowerPro ---------------------------------
local sString,xString,uString,iwNum,iuNum
sString="string_to_be_converted"
iwNum=dll.call("MultiByteToWideChar|ui ui s i x i",;;+
0,0,"sString",-1,"xString",0)
xString=repeat(" ",iwNum*2) ;; needed when sString is long
dll.call("MultiByteToWideChar|ui ui s i x i",;;+
0,0,"sString",-1,"xString",iwNum)
iuNum=dll.call("WideCharToMultiByte|ui ui x i s i ui ui",;;+
65001,0,"xString",-1,"uString",0,0,0)
uString=repeat(" ",iuNum) ;; needed when sString is long
dll.call("WideCharToMultiByte|ui ui x i s i ui ui",;;+
65001,0,"xString",-1,"uString",iuNum,0,0)
file.writeall(pprofolder++"output.txt",uString)
quit
