Here is a quote from the mail from Andrew Kozin - author of YAW:

First of all you need to load *.nls and pass the pointer to this memory area
and the pointer to defined structure RTL_NLS_DATA
typedef struct _RTL_NLS_DATA
{
WORD codepage; /* codepage */
WORD max_char_size; /* maximum character size */
WORD default_char; /* default character */
WORD char1; /* */
WORD char2; /* */
WORD char3; /* */
WORD dbcs_flag; /* 1 for DBCS, 0 for SBCS */
struct _lb_range lead_byte_range[6]; /* array of lead-byte ranges */
WORD reserved; /* */
WCHAR *multibyte_2_unicode; /* multibyte-to-unicode table */
char *unicode_2_multibyte; /* unicode-to-multibyte table */
ULONG unknown; /* */
char *dbcs_tags; /* DBCS tags table */
}RTL_NLS_DATA;
Functions:
VOID WINAPI RtlInitCodePageTable
(
VOID *nls_file,
RTL_NLS_DATA *nls
);
It will fill fields of structure RTL_NLS_DATA with needed values.
And only then to use
NTSTATUS WINAPI RtlCustomCPToUnicode
(
RTL_NLS_DATA *nls,
WCHAR *Dst,
DWORD Size,
DWORD *pdwSize,
CHAR *Src,
DWORD Length
);
and
NTSTATUS WINAPI RtlUnicodeToCustomCPN
(
RTL_NLS_DATA *nls,
CHAR *Dst,
DWORD Size,
DWORD *pdwSize,
WCHAR *Src,
DWORD Length
);

Dependence is not quite obvious. But RtlInitCodePageTable() is
the part of NT's interface dealing with NLS files and tables.
