Hi,

I don't have an English OS but I think there is a small typing failure in the function that disables it's functionality:

function UnicodeToAscii($inputFile, $outputFile)
Shell '%compsec% /C type "' + $inputFile + '" > "' + $outputFile + '"'
endfunction

should be:
function UnicodeToAscii($inputFile, $outputFile)
Shell '%comspec% /C type "' + $inputFile + '" > "' + $outputFile + '"'
endfunction

=> the environment variable compsec doesn't exist on my system, it is comspec
